There's an impressionist who used to be on tv quite a lot,not seen in a while though - does impressions of machine guns, car doors and helicopters, that sort of thing.
anyone know his name?

Thanks!

You lot are upsetting my 8 year old with your poor quality answers!

He was probably on things like Saturday (or Friday) Night Live - the Ben Elton thing... Stuff like that. (vague enough?)

How can Monet not be a quality answer? Your 8 year old is clearly a philistine.

Dez - Al Murray did start out doing this stuff... he seems to have removed all trace from teh internet. He was good at it too... if that's your sort of thing.

We are enjoying Michael Winslow.
pretty sure it wasn't Al Murray. Hmm maybe it was though...

From wiki:
He started out with an act that involved sound-effect impressions, including of guns, animals and a particularly impressive car boot; a combination that prompted an equal number of plaudits for vocal skill and complaints of tastelessness.
