Paul Sinha has become one of the most popular faces in the game show world and fans of The Chase just can’t seem to get enough of him. The former GP is used to helping people get better, which is funny because he usually makes contestants feel ill on The Chase.
The Sinnerman, 51, is a fully qualified doctor, training at St George's Hospital medical school before becoming a GP in 1995. While there he discovered a new passion for performing on stage as a comedian.
While he was a junior doctor Paul took part in St George's annual revue and used his comedic talents as co-editor of the medical school newsletter known as the 'Slag Mag'. His big breakthrough came with his second solo Edinburgh Fringe festival show 'Saint or Sinha?' which earned him a prestigious if.comedy (formerly the Perrier Comedy Award) nomination.
