Joe Pasquale
Joseph Ellis Pasquale (born 20 August 1961) is an English comedian, actor and television presenter. He is well-known for his squeaky, high-pitched voice.
In 1987 he was the runner-up on the TV talent show New Faces, since then he has appeared in numerous TV and stage appearances, as well as stand-up shows, plays, musicals and pantomimes. In 2004 he went on to win the fourth series of I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here! and participated in the eighth series of Dancing on Ice in 2013. He also hosted the revived version of the game show The Price Is Right.
Joseph Ellis Pasquale was born as the third of four children to Joe and Ethel. He is of Italian descent through his grandfather, who came to the United Kingdom soon after World War II. In a 2006 interview, Pasquale revealed: "He couldn't speak English, so he filled out the immigration form wrong. His Christian name was 'Pasquale', but he wrote it where his surname should have been. His actual surname was Trascini".
Pasquale attended Torrells Comprehensive School for his secondary education. At the age of 13, he got run over and broke his leg. Due to this, he skipped a year of schooling and could not do his exams.
Pasquale eventually left school aged 15 and took a series of dead-end jobs, including working at his father's margarine factory in Purfleet, a tea boy and errand boy in the civil service, porter at Smithfield meat market in London, working at the Ford Dagenham automotive plant, manning a garage forecourt, building site labourer, and a swimming pool attendant – despite not being able to swim.
He then got a job at as a Greencoat at a Warner Holiday Camp in Lowestoft, where he became a bingo caller and refereed wrestling matches.
He later became Entertainments Manager at another Warner Holiday Camp, in Torquay.
Pasquale rose to fame in 1987, when he appeared on New Faces. He auditioned as a bet with a friend, and every time he answered one of the director's questions, the judging panel laughed even more. A week later, his secretary at the holiday camp told him he will be competing. During the course of the series, Pasquale smashed a guitar, did magic tricks, and met Ken Dodd who gave him a couple of jokes to perform, and he won the round immediately after the advice. He eventually finished runner-up.
