Biography
He came into prominence with the BBC's Lennie and Jerry Show and went on to host Punchlines on ITV which ran for six years.
He has appeared at many Royal Variety shows. In later years, Lennie hosted world-wide entertainment for corporate clients. The last we heard of him was on a "where are they now?"-type show in 2004, when he was running a burger bar, Fat B'Stards, in Blackpool.
He died on 8 April 2009 at the age of 70.
Trivia
He lost his virginity at the age of 13.
He hosted the opening night of Television South West in 1982, infamously declaring that TSW would stand for "Television Simply Wonderful" - a claim with which few critics (or viewers) agreed.
