I would like to take this opportunity to wish everyone a safe and happy festive period. Thank you all for your tremendous support during 2011 and here's to a fantastic 2012!
Big Joe Egan takes on the Eggheads tonight!
12th December 2011
Snooker legend Willie Thorne, the most capped player of all time, Peter Shilton, former World's Strongest Man, Geoff Capes, former Leicestershire wicket keeper, Paul Nixon and boxer turned film star, Joe Egan, will all take on the Eggheads on tonight's Celebrity Eggheads!
The team of sporting greats will have a challenge on their hands as they challenged the team of seasoned quiz champions, known as the 'Eggheads' in a bid to win the quiz show and gain valuable fundraising for their chosen charity.
Kicking off the fourth series of the popular Celebrity Eggheads show, this will surely be an interesting episode – full of laughs and hopefully, fundraising for the team's chosen charity.
Tune in to BBC Two tonight at 6pm to see the team in action!
Big Joe to Star in Bronson Documentary
14th of September 2011
This month sees Joe star in a documentary focusing on the life of one of the most infamous criminals from Britain. Charles Bronson was initially imprisoned for seven years for committing robbery before a string of violent attacks on prison guards led him to further jail time. Prior to his imprisonment, Bronson spent time as a bare knuckle boxer in London, which is why producers of the programme 'The Real Bronson' have sought out Joe's help. Joe will play the role of Bronson's coach and trainer during the years when he was fighting. The finale of the programme sees Joe feature in an interview talking about Bronson's remarkable past.
Joe is excited about the documentary and enjoyed the filming for it saying:
"Whether you like him or not this programme gives a great insight into one of the most infamous prisoners of our lifetime and gives viewers the opportunity to delve into the mind of one of Britain's most feared criminals"
"I cannot wait to see the programme and it is certainly not to be missed!"

The 'The Real Bronson' will be shown on the 15th September at 21.00pm on the Crime Investigation Channel- Sky 553
