Ian Billings

Ian Billings was born at a very young age. He has done many things in his time and some of them he'd like to tell you about. He is an ex-juggler, a pantomime writer (fifty productions!), an actor, TV extra, a theatre technician, a university lecturer, a model and a general dabbler in many areas.

He has written episodes of BBC TV's Chuckle-Vision and his stage plays and pantomimes have been performed in Wolverhampton, Northampton, Hastings, Nottingham, Weston-Super-Mare and on a ferry to Spain. He has a Masters Degree from Birmingham University and two goldfish from Petworld. He is five feet and seven inches in length and avoids cheese.

Ian began performing stand-up comedy for kids at Edinburgh Festival Fringe (whilst also presenting his own radio show for Festival FM!) and now he tours theatres and schools throughout the UK, Cyprus, Germany, Australia, Uganda, Kenya, Russia, Switzerland, UAE, Oman, Vietnam and Thailand. He was described by one young audience member as "the most imaginative adult I've ever met!"

Caboodle Books reprinted SAM HAWKINS AND THE POINTY HEAD LIGHT HOUSE followed by sci-fi poetry collection, SPACE ROCKS!

Ian has edited an anthology of children's poems for Save the Children called "Born to Giggle!" and his latest book is "BILLY PLONKA AND THE GROT LABORATORY."

He recently re-released his classic children's comedies "Sam Hawkins and the Cutglass Cutlass" and "Chocolate Meltdown" from Tiddley Pom Books together with new versions of "The King's New Space Suit", "I've Got Your Nose" and two brand new books, "There's a Vampire in My Bedroom" and "Boooo!!!"

“Tolly Grimpen’s Tales of Grot and Horror” from Tiny Tree came out in 2024 with four “DinoQuest” books in 2025 together with the book, audiobook and ebook versions of “Billy Plonka and the Grot Laboratory” and “The FBG”.
