Jackson Booth-Millard The first episode seemed like just a one-off, but I'm glad it turned into a series. The lovable Friday Night Project and Flipside TV presenter Justin Lee Collins basically travels to America to take part in some of the biggest conventions. The first time he went to one was when he entered a celebrity look-a-likes convention (contest), and he entered as Sir Tom Jones singing "Delilah" and "It's Not Unusual", and the professionals were impressed. When the series returned he entered three other conventions, to become a magician (he achieved third place!), a ventriloquist (some good comments from the judges), and a clown (the audience loved it, be has was disqualified for giving an audience member a balloon - which counts as audience participation, and he could have been disqualified for his nose falling off). A great documentary series with a great leading character. Very good!
