John Shuttleworth, a quirky singer-songwriter and radio presenter from Sheffield in South Yorkshire, is a comedy legend who has been entertaining audiences all over the UK since 1985. Created and performed by Comedian Graham Fellows, the character of Shuttleworth is in his late 50s with an awkward, yet fun, sense of humour and he has a slightly nerdy, endearing charm.

A lovable, and somewhat infamous character, he’s supported by his wife, Mary, a dinner lady, and his inept neighbour and agent, Ken Worthington. Shuttleworth’s career includes TV appearances, such as The Paradise Club, and radio shows like The Shuttleworths. Whether it’s through tunes or awkward comedy, John's fans always leave with a smile.
