Thousands tuned in daily on BBC Radio Cambridgeshire to listen to him – and recently they’ve laughed along with his lockdown YouTube videos.
But clearly, and with time on his hands after being laid low by Covid, Paul Stainton has lost none of his ability to create a storm.
And his target is Christmas – in fact the NINE Rules of Christmas as defined by Paul Stainton.
In no particular order these are Paul’s 9 rules he wants us to observe:
1: Mince pies must be sold all year round
2: Christmas decorations not to be put up and lights switched on before December 1.
3: Christmas jumpers and paper hats to be outlawed. Completely.
