I have another non-boring Jew.
The relentlessly entertaining David Baddiel.
I've laughed at his stand-up, interviews, novels, sketch shows, Fantasy Football and especially Baddiel and Skinner Unplanned.

Oh and cried a bit at his Who Do You Think You Are episode.

David being interviewed by his sometime collaborator and friend, Frank Skinner.
NSFW! Some swearing.

He does tell some very funny stories about his daughter, Dolly.
In one, she was going through a phase of calling him by his name, as she heard it on TV and radio. He and his wife (Morwenna Banks, another actor) decided to let it slide expecting she would grow out of it.

However one day, he was in a public place and she needed to go to the toilet. He took her into a stall in the Gents, masking her view of the urinals with his body.
She did her business and he sorted her out, however she decided to say, precociously, "David Baddiel! Pull my pants up!" (I forget the exact story, but it was something along those lines).

He was mortified and left the lavs with a furtive air of a paedo...
