Jason Bradbury is a British television personality who currently presents The Gadget Show on Five.
Jason began his professional career as a stand-up comic as one half of a double act with David Walliams of Little Britain fame. After roughly four years working with David, Jason branched out and started his TV presenting career. In over ten years in TV he's presented numerous series including The Big Breakfast and The Web Review on ITV, and has featured prominently on several channels including Bravo, Trouble, and BBC Knowledge.
Jason's passion for science and technology has made him the obvious choice for several children's science formats including Channel 4's Science In Focus and the Royal Television Society Award-winning Gross! for Discovery Kids. He presented the computer gaming show Mercenaries in 2001, repeats of the show can be seen on Virgin 1.
Jason joined Five's The Gadget Show at the beginning of the series and has made a name for himself with his unique blend of humour and 'geek chic'. Jason is known for his exotic DIY gadget builds which have included a DIY hoverboard, the world's first 'phone glove', a home-made steadicam, a Heads-Up Display for his girlfriend's car, and a device made from a modified mouse that (crudely) controlled a computer using only his mind.
Jason can be heard regularly on BBC Radio 2 and BBC Radio 5 Live, he writes a popular technology blog and also presents the AV Forums podcast.
It was announced on his Blog that he has a contract for 3 books from Puffin.[citation needed] The 3 books are part of his Dot. Robot series.
