TV and Radio Star Pat Sharp Takes on Celebrity Mastermind
The TV and radio star, Pat Sharp, known for his iconic mullet hairstyle in the 1990s, is set to appear on the popular BBC One quiz show, Celebrity Mastermind. In the upcoming episode, Pat Sharp will face off against Clive Myrie in the famous black chair.
The episode features four well-known personalities, including Ruth Davidson, Fats Timbo, and Jay Rayner, as they compete to win money for their chosen charities. Clive Myrie will preside over the proceedings.
Pat Sharp gained fame for hosting the beloved children’s TV show, Fun House, during the 1990s. The show featured exciting obstacle courses, go-kart races, and plenty of fun with gunge. Pat was supported by twin cheerleaders, Melanie Grant leading the red team and Martina Grant on the yellow team, throughout the show’s run.
Since his Fun House days, Pat has become a household name in the entertainment industry. He hosted the popular music show, Top of the Pops, on BBC and has lent his voice to numerous TV and radio commercials for big brands such as Pampers, Rice Krispies Squares, Warner Bros Cinemas, and Surf.
In 2011, Pat appeared on ITV’s I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here and even served as the support act for the Bros reunion gigs at The O2 in London. Pat also regularly appears on television and festival events.
In 2019, Pat started working as a DJ on Greatest Hits Radio. However, in September 2023, his contract was not renewed following an incident where he made a crude joke to a woman while handing her a T-shirt with his face on it. The joke was poorly received, and Pat apologized for his actions.
Pat currently lives with his wife, Monica, in Hertfordshire, and they have three children together, Nicci, Daniel, and Charlotte. Pat shares glimpses of his happy family life on Instagram, where he has amassed 27.9k followers. Recently, he shared an adorable photo from their vacation in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic, captioning it as ‘My 3 musketeer girls’.
Celebrity Mastermind, featuring Pat Sharp, will air on BBC One at 7:30 PM.
