Jonathan Ross has been a familiar face and voice
in British broadcasting since the late 1980s. From his early days
hosting Channel 4’s The Last Resort, he’s gone on to become one
of the country’s most recognisable presenters, known for his
sharp humour and genuine curiosity. Whether it’s chatting with
global superstars on The Jonathan Ross Show, judging the wild
antics on The Masked Singer, or sharing his love of film on “Reel
Talk” with his daughter Honey, Jonathan’s career has always been
about connecting with people and celebrating culture in all its
forms.

Yet, for all the celebrity encounters and TV moments, Jonathan
is, at heart, a passionate music fan - and Paul Weller’s work has
been a constant thread through his life. In this episode,
recorded for my book Paul Weller: Dancing Through the Fire - The
Authorised Oral History, Jonathan shares his memories of buying
The Jam’s 'In the City' on release day, hitchhiking to see the
band as a teenager, and later welcoming Weller onto his TV shows
at pivotal moments in his solo career. It’s a conversation about
the thrill of punk, the evolution of fandom, and the enduring
power of Paul Weller’s music to inspire, challenge, and connect.
