If You Can Laugh at It and Funny Magnet.^[5] In 2025, he returned to the Fringe with new material, impressions, and a Q&A segment, continuing his national tour amid a career revival.^[2] His impressions repertoire includes over 100 voices, from politicians to pop stars, which he has showcased in specials like An Audience with Bobby Davro and various comedy panels.^[6] On a personal note, Davro was married to singer Trudi Jameson from 1993 to 2003, with whom he has three daughters, Brittany, Tierney, and Marni.^[3] He was engaged to stylist Vicky Wright, who tragically died from pancreatic cancer in May 2023 at age 63, shortly after their engagement.^[7] In January 2023, Davro suffered a haemorrhagic stroke during a performance, initially mistaking symptoms like numbness and slurred speech for a hangover; he has since shared updates on his recovery, including ongoing toe numbness and memory challenges affecting his line delivery in pantomimes like Pinocchio.^[7] Despite these setbacks, he resumed performing in April 2023, crediting friends like Les Dennis and Bradley Walsh for support, and became a grandfather in May 2025 with the birth of grandson Bohdi.^[8]

Early life

Family background

Bobby Davro was born Robert Christopher Nankeville on 13 September 1958 in Ashford, Middlesex, England. He grew up in a middle-class family during the post-war period in 1950s and 1960s England, in the Surrey area near the Middlesex border, where economic recovery shaped modest household circumstances.^[4]^[9]^[10] His father, Bill Nankeville (1925–2021), was a celebrated British middle-distance runner from a humble background—born in Woking, Surrey, to a milkman father and a cleaner mother—who rose to become the AAA mile champion four times between 1948 and 1952 and represented Great Britain in the 1500m at the 1948 London and 1952 Helsinki Olympics, finishing sixth in 1948. Bill's athletic discipline and perseverance, forged in post-war austerity, influenced his son's early sense of determination, with young Robert discovering his father's medals and memorabilia in a cupboard at age five, fostering an early appreciation for achievement amid everyday challenges.^[11]^[9] Davro's mother, Jeanette Nankeville, married Bill in 1947 and supported the family until her death in 2010; the couple named their business "Davro Trading" after their sons David and Robert. He has an older brother, David, a golfer, and a younger sister, Janette, reflecting a close-knit sibling dynamic in their Surrey home.^[11]^[9]^[12]

Education and early interests

Bobby Davro, born Robert Christopher Nankeville in 1958, grew up in Ashford, Middlesex, where he attended a local private school during the 1960s and 1970s.^[13] He later described his school experience as one in which he "messed around," achieving only one O-level qualification in history, reflecting a lack of strong academic focus.^[13] From an early age, Davro displayed a keen interest in performance and mimicry, often impersonating schoolteachers and friends to elicit laughter from peers.^[10] His talent became particularly evident during his teenage years, when he was caught mimicking his headmaster and received corporal punishment in the form of "six of the best" with the cane.^[14] One of his earliest impressions was of the character Frank Spencer from the 1970s BBC sitcom Some Mothers Do 'Ave 'Em, honing a skill that foreshadowed his future as an impressionist.^[13] These schoolyard antics, set against a middle-class family background that emphasized discipline, nurtured his comedic inclinations without formal training.^[10]

Career

Early career and breakthrough

Bobby Davro entered the entertainment industry in the early 1980s, making his television debut in 1981 on minor entertainment programmes that provided initial exposure for emerging comedians and impressionists. These early appearances, including spots on shows like Go For It! and Punchlines!, allowed him to hone his skills in live performance and quick-witted satire, building a foundation for his impressionist style.^[15]^[16] His major breakthrough arrived in 1983 with a guest spot on the ITV variety programme Live from Her Majesty's, where he captivated audiences with impressions of celebrities and politicians, demonstrating his versatility and comedic timing.^[15]^[17] This performance marked a turning point, propelling him from obscurity to national recognition and opening doors to prime-time opportunities.^[18] By 1985, Davro had solidified his status as a leading impressionist through his role in the LWT-produced sketch series Copy Cats, a hit programme featuring ensemble impressions that ran for three series until 1987.^[19]^[20] In the mid-1980s, he transitioned into hosting, fronting ITV's Bobby Davro on the Box from 1985 to 1986, followed by Bobby Davro's TV Annual in 1986–1987 and TV Weekly in 1987–1988. These shows, which often satirized contemporary television and popular culture, helped cultivate his persona as a sharp, humorous commentator on the media landscape.^[21]^[22]

Television presenting and impressions

In the late 1980s and early 1990s, Bobby Davro established himself as a prominent television presenter and impressionist through a series of sketch-based programs on ITV. His 1989 show Davro's Sketch Pad, produced by TVS, consisted of six episodes featuring original comedic sketches interspersed with his signature impressions of celebrities and public figures. This format allowed Davro to showcase his versatile impressionist skills, blending humor with musical parodies to appeal to a broad family audience. The series highlighted his transition from guest appearances to leading his own vehicle for satirical comedy.^[23] Building on this success, Davro starred in the follow-up series Davro from 1990 to 1991, which expanded to 14 episodes and further emphasized sketch comedy alongside impressions. In these programs, he portrayed a range of characters, incorporating light-hearted satire on contemporary entertainers and cultural icons, often through exaggerated vocal mimicry and physical comedy. The shows received positive viewership for their energetic presentation style, cementing Davro's reputation as a reliable host capable of sustaining prime-time entertainment. His impressionist repertoire during this period evolved to include more polished song-based routines, drawing on influences from his earlier variety work while adapting to the sketch format's demands.^[24] By the mid-1990s, Davro shifted toward game show hosting, reviving the classic quiz format in Winner Takes All for Challenge TV in 1997. Produced by Yorkshire Television, the series ran for 65 episodes, where Davro's charismatic and quick-witted presenting kept the high-stakes gameplay engaging, often infusing episodes with impromptu impressions to lighten the competitive tension. This role demonstrated his adaptability beyond sketches, leveraging his comedic timing to modernize a nostalgic property. Critics noted the show's success in recapturing the original's appeal through Davro's affable on-screen presence.^[25] In 2006, Davro appeared as a guest judge on Channel 5's The All Star Talent Show, evaluating contestants' performances in impressions, singing, and variety acts across multiple episodes. His judging style emphasized constructive feedback rooted in his own experience as an impressionist, praising technical accuracy and entertainment value while offering insights into satirical delivery. This appearance underscored the enduring relevance of his impressionist expertise in mentoring emerging talents. Over time, Davro's style—characterized by humorous, non-confrontational takes on figures like entertainers Tom Jones and Frank Sinatra, as well as occasional royal caricatures—earned acclaim for its crowd-pleasing accessibility, though later reviews described it as emblematic of a bygone era of mainstream light entertainment.^[26]^[6]

Acting roles

Bobby Davro transitioned from his established career in comedy to dramatic acting in the mid-2000s, seeking to demonstrate his range beyond impressions and sketch work. His first significant foray into television drama came in 2005 with the role of Terry Lonsdale, a supporting character in the ITV series Footballers' Wive$: Overtime, where he appeared in three episodes as the husband of Wendy Lonsdale amid the show's exploration of Premier League players' personal lives. This role provided an early opportunity for Davro to engage in serialized narrative television outside comedic formats. Davro's most prominent dramatic role was as Vinnie Monks in the BBC soap opera EastEnders, which he portrayed from October 2007 to December 2008 across 66 episodes. Introduced as a brash, opportunistic newcomer to Walford, Vinnie was the father of teenager Callum Monks and quickly became entangled in family tensions, including disputes over Callum's upbringing and Vinnie's strained relationships with his ex-partner. His character arc centered on a tumultuous romance with landlady Shirley Carter, beginning dramatically when he accidentally knocked her over with his car while she headed to court; the pair's on-off relationship involved intense conflicts, such as Vinnie's jealousy and Shirley's divided loyalties.^[27]^[28] Key storylines highlighted Vinnie's manipulative side, including his attempts to win Shirley back by purchasing a flat in Walford and pressuring her to relocate, only for their reconciliation to unravel due to revelations about Shirley's infidelity with Phil Mitchell.^[28] Despite initial promise, Davro announced his departure in July 2008 to pursue other projects, with Vinnie exiting in a storyline where he and Shirley planned to move to France together, though underlying family and romantic discord persisted.^[29] In a 2016 interview, Davro reflected that financial pressures, including the soap's modest pay not suiting his lifestyle, influenced his decision to leave after just over a year, underscoring the challenges of sustaining a dramatic role amid his comedic background.^[30] Throughout the 1990s and early 2000s, Davro took on sporadic minor dramatic television roles, such as guest appearances in series that allowed him to build acting credentials, though these were overshadowed by his primary comedic output. His EastEnders stint, in particular, was noted for testing his versatility, as he navigated the demands of ongoing character development in a high-stakes soap environment.^[3]

Reality television appearances

In 2009, Bobby Davro participated in a celebrity special edition of the Channel 4 cooking competition Come Dine with Me, competing against Laila Morse, Dane Bowers, and Dani Behr over four dinner parties. During his hosting turn, Davro prepared a menu featuring dishes like roast lamb and attempted to entertain guests with his comedic flair, though the episode highlighted some culinary mishaps that tested his improvisational skills. He ultimately finished second in the competition, demonstrating his natural hosting abilities in an unscripted environment.^[31] The following year, Davro joined the fifth series of ITV's Dancing on Ice, paired with professional skater Molly Moenkhoff. In their debut performance, the pair executed a routine to "Me and My Shadow," earning praise for Davro's enthusiasm despite his self-admitted lack of prior skating experience. However, they faced challenges with balance and lifts in subsequent training, leading to their elimination in week two after losing a skate-off to actor Gary Lucy and professional Maria Filianova. Davro later reflected on the physical demands, noting how the show pushed him out of his comfort zone and highlighted the intensity of learning complex routines under pressure.^[32]^[33] Davro appeared in the inaugural UK series of ITV's Your Face Sounds Familiar in 2013, a musical impersonation contest where celebrities mimicked performers for charity. Over the first four weeks without eliminations, he delivered impressions including Ozzy Osbourne, Tom Jones, and Mick Jagger, blending his longstanding impressionist talents with singing and choreography, though some performances drew mixed reviews for prioritizing humor over vocal accuracy. He was eliminated in week five alongside Denise Lewis, after which the pair joined a special duet as Mary J. Blige and George Michael; the show allowed Davro to revisit his comedic roots in a competitive, transformative format.^[34]^[35] In 2015, Davro entered the sixteenth series of Channel 5's Celebrity Big Brother, joining a house that included figures like Farrah Abraham, Austin Armacost, and Natasha Hamilton. His time in the house was marked by lively debates and tensions, particularly a heated confrontation with Abraham where he criticized her behavior, earning him the nickname "Satan" from her and polarizing viewer opinions. Davro formed alliances with housemates like Hamilton, contributing to the show's drama through his quick wit and storytelling. He finished in fourth place after 22 days, with fans praising his entertaining presence but noting the emotional toll of the isolation; the appearance reignited public interest in his career, leading to discussions about his resilience in high-stakes reality formats.^[36]^[37]

Live performances and theatre

Davro's live performances in the 1980s and 1990s built directly on his burgeoning television fame, transitioning his impression-based comedy from screen to stage through variety shows and theatre appearances. His breakthrough came with a standout performance on the live-broadcast variety program Live from Her Majesty's in 1983, where he showcased his versatile impressions and sketches to theatre audiences, establishing him as a dynamic live entertainer capable of captivating crowds with quick-witted parody.^[38] Throughout the decade, he toured UK venues with stand-up routines that echoed his TV work, emphasizing audience interaction through improvised impressions of celebrities and politicians, which helped solidify his reputation as a crowd-pleasing comedian in an era of traditional variety entertainment.^[39] In 2015, Davro expanded into dramatic theatre with a lead role as Eric, the determined captain of a struggling minicab drivers' table tennis team, in the revival of Simon Block's comedy-drama Not a Game for Boys at the King's Head Theatre in London. Running from June 10 to July 5, the production highlighted Davro's shift toward more nuanced character work while retaining his comedic timing, earning praise for his portrayal of a man seeking escape from everyday pressures through sport.^[40] This stage role paved the way for his 20-date UK stand-up tour starting May 17, 2016, at Epsom Playhouse and concluding in June, where he blended classic impressions with personal anecdotes to engage theatregoers across the country.^[15] Davro experienced a notable resurgence in live performance starting in 2023, with sell-out runs at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, beginning with his debut show My Name Is Bobby Davro in 2023, followed by Everything Is Funny... If You Can Laugh at It in 2024. This momentum continued into 2025 with a return to the Fringe from August 1 to 24 at the Frankenstein Pub, presenting the cabaret-style show Bobby Davro is the Funny Magnet. Featuring a mix of stand-up, impressions, songs, and audience Q&A, the 2025 show drew crowds with its high-energy, interactive format that updated his signature style for contemporary audiences.^[38]^[41] Capitalizing on this momentum, he launched his first full UK comedy tour in over a decade, Everything Is Funny If You Can Laugh At It, commencing in March at Brookside Theatre in Romford and extending through September 27 at Leicester Square Theatre in London, with stops at 12 venues nationwide. The tour showcased evolved material, including mature humor on life's absurdities alongside timeless impressions influenced by his television roots, emphasizing Davro's enduring appeal through direct audience rapport and a blend of nostalgia and fresh wit.^[42]

Personal life

Marriages and relationships

Bobby Davro was married to model Trudi Jameson from 1993 until their divorce in 2003.^[43]^[44] The couple's separation was attributed to the strains of Davro's demanding television career, which left him frequently absent from home, contributing to Jameson's affair and the subsequent breakdown of their ten-year marriage.^[45] Despite the split, Davro and Jameson maintained an amicable co-parenting relationship, with Davro occasionally residing with her in later years to support their family.^[43] The marriage produced three daughters: Brittany (born circa 1995), Tierney (born circa 1997), and Marnie (born circa 2000).^[44]^[46] Davro has spoken publicly about his close bond with his daughters, emphasizing his role as a devoted father amid his professional commitments.^[47] In October 2024, Davro announced he would become a grandfather in 2025, with daughter Brittany expecting a child.^[48] Following his divorce, Davro began a relationship with singer and actress Vicky Wright, daughter of footballer Billy Wright, in 2007.^[49] The partnership was on-and-off, with a separation around 2011 before they reunited; by 2022, after approximately 12 intermittent years together, Davro proposed to Wright, and they became engaged.^[50]^[51] Wright was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in 2022 and passed away on May 3, 2023, at age 63.^[52] These relationships significantly influenced Davro's personal stability, particularly during his career's highs in the 1990s and subsequent lows in the 2000s. The end of his marriage exacerbated financial pressures, as Davro noted the divorce compounded professional setbacks like reduced television work.^[53] In contrast, co-parenting with Jameson and his later bond with Wright provided emotional grounding, helping him navigate industry fluctuations and personal challenges.^[43]^[51]

Health issues

In January 2024, Bobby Davro suffered a haemorrhagic stroke shortly after performing at a comedy gig in Coulsdon, south London, initially mistaking the symptoms for a severe hangover. He experienced sudden numbness down his left side, slurred speech, and difficulty walking, which led to his collapse backstage; medical scans later confirmed a brain bleed as the cause.^[7]^[54]^[55] The stroke significantly impacted Davro's speech and ability to perform impressions, core elements of his comedy career, leaving him with temporary slurring reminiscent of a pirate's drawl and limitations on certain voices due to muscle weakness and coordination issues. His recovery involved intensive speech therapy, dietary changes to reduce health risks, and quitting menthol cigarettes, alongside rest that forced the cancellation of several shows. By mid-2024, he had regained much of his vocal range but continued facing challenges like toe numbness and short-term memory lapses.^[7]^[56]^[54] The emotional strain of the stroke compounded the grief from his fiancée Vicky Wright's death in May 2023, which Davro has linked as a possible contributing factor to his health decline, describing 2023 as a profoundly difficult year. In April 2025, during an Easter pantomime production of Pinocchio, he publicly admitted ongoing memory difficulties that affected line recall, expressing fears of permanent cognitive effects despite therapy progress. By July 2025, Davro reported near-full recovery, crediting resumed touring—including a return to the Edinburgh Fringe Festival—as therapeutic for both physical rehabilitation and emotional healing, though some impressions remained selectively limited.^[57]^[56]^[8]

Charity involvement

Bobby Davro has maintained long-term support for the UK-based charity Kids 'n' Cancer, which assists children with cancer in accessing specialized treatments such as proton therapy abroad.^[58] In 2013, he participated as a celebrity contestant on ITV's Your Face Sounds Familiar, using his impression skills to perform as various artists, with proceeds directed to the charity.^[15] The following year, Davro pledged his show's victory winnings to Kids 'n' Cancer to fund life-saving treatments for affected children.^[58] Beyond this organization, Davro has engaged in impression-based fundraising through comedy performances for children's causes. He contributed to Comic Relief by joining Peter Kay in a comedic rendition of The Proclaimers' "500 Miles," leveraging his impersonation talents to boost donations.^[15] In the 1990s and 2000s, his variety show appearances and live sketches often aligned with telethon-style events, where satirical impressions of public figures helped amplify charitable appeals, though specific metrics from those eras remain limited.^[15] Davro's philanthropy extends to other children's charities, including hosting annual gala spectacles for Woking & Sam Beare Hospices, marking his tenth such event in 2025 to support pediatric care.^[59]^[60] He has also backed Variety – the Children's Charity, hosting auctions and celebrating fundraising milestones that exceeded £300,000 in one instance through community events.^[61] Post-2023, following personal health challenges, Davro continued active involvement, appearing at high-profile fundraisers like the 2025 Princebuild Blingo event, which raised £32,500 for local children's initiatives.^[62] His commitment draws partial inspiration from his role as a father, emphasizing support for family-oriented causes.^[63]
