(from Radio 4's I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue)

When comedy writer, Paul Mayhew-Archer, was told he had Parkinson’s he refused to take his serious illness too seriously. Instead, he started doing jokes about it, with appearances at the Royal Albert Hall and London's Comedy Store. In 2015 he made an award-winning documentary about it called 'Parkinson’s - The Funny Side’,  In 2018, he started performing his one-man show about it, “Incurable Optimist” and recently, along with Jeremy Paxman and Rory Cellan-Jones, he’s started doing a podcast about it called ‘Movers and Shakers'. Meanwhile his wife lives in constant hope that a cure will be found so that he'll finally shut up about it.
