Winner - Comedian's Choice 'Piece of Wood' Award 2018,  Melbourne Int'l Comedy Festival

After years of being known as 'that guy who does Chopper', Heath Franklin is stepping out from behind the fake tatts and sunnies, and working on a new character – himself!

It's a bit out of character, but it turns out Heath's pretty funny too.

See Heath as Heath for the first time - same incredible comic mind, but with new targets, new jokes and a lot less moustache. 

As seen on 7 Days.
