Ross Kemp has lived many lives in public. He has been a soap opera psychopath, a war zone travelogue presenter and, most recently, someone who uses social media to show the world how veiny and purple his head can get during international sporting events. But Kemp is a restless spirit, always in search of the next adrenaline-filled adventure. And that is why, from today, Kemp has found his fourth age. That’s right, Ross Kemp is now a daytime quizshow presenter.
Wonderfully, the quizshow he hosts has the most aggressively Kempish title possible: Bridge of Lies. Isn’t that evocative? Doesn’t it sound tense and exciting? Doesn’t it sound like it could, feasibly, be the name of a high-stakes cold war-era repatriation operation?
