Anyone wondering what Lenny Henry has been up to should be pleased to know
that he's hard at work as usual.
He has announced plans to tour the UK looking at regional humour in order to
make a BBC documentary series.
"I'm really looking forward to it, I think it's gonna be great. We'll be
exploring the idea of a region having an intrinsic sense of humour. We all know
about Scousers but what about people from Norwich? We're used to the Lancashire
accent in comedy but what about Cornish humour...and so on."
He also has a number of other projects on the go - including a documentary on
the late American comedian Richard Pryor.
