Gadget guru, Jason Bradbury will join Sir Richard Branson and Ronan Keating in The Swim, a unique celebrity relay team challenge, tackling the treacherous Irish Sea from Holyhead to Dublin - a distance of 56 miles - to raise £1 million for Cancer Research UK.

Bradbury is currently the host of Five’s ‘The Gadget Show’, and more recently the BBC1 family game show, ‘Don’t Scare the Hare.’ With a career spanning fifteen years, from stand-up comedy with David Walliams and Simon Pegg, slots on The Big Breakfast and Sky1 to writing a trilogy of preteen techno-thriller books, Bradbury certainly has the stamina to be part of The Swim team.
