Description: It is a satirist's dream come true. John Crace looks back over a decade of poking fun at clunky plots and dodgy dialogue. John is a staff feature writer for the 'Guardian' and author of many books. He writes the literary pastiche 'Digested Read', incisive pastiches of the most popular writers, from Bridget Jones to Julian Barnes, and is the Parliamentary sketch writer for the 'Guardian'. He has also written several books, including 'Vertigo: One Football Fan’s Fear of Success' and 'Harry’s Games: Inside the Mind of Harry Redknapp'. A committed Spurs supporter, he lives in south-west London but travels to N17 for every home game. His most recent book is 'I Never Promised You a Rose Garden: A Short Guide to Modern Politics, the Coalition and the General Election'. 5x15 brings together five outstanding individuals to tell of their lives, passions and inspirations. There are only two rules - no scripts and only 15 minutes each.
