(he just doesn't know it yet)

Gig-starved comedians are trying anything to keep themselves occupied and employed during lockdown.

Now Joz Norris has decided to retrain as a 'sexy pin-up model' – and is launching a sultry calendar.

He said: 'Obviously, comedy's having a bit of a mare at the moment, so I've decided to follow Rishi Sunak's advice and retrain and launch my new career with the 100% Official Joz Norris Sexy Calendar. 

'It includes 12 themed seasonal photos of me in my new role as a Sexy Pin-Up Model. And because a lot of people besides us comedians are watching their incomes and livelihoods disappear before their eyes this year, 50 per cent of all proceeds from the Sexy Calendar will be donated to Turn2Us.'

The charity supports people in financial hardship, and Mark Watson previously highlighted its work by donating some of the proceeds from his  recent 24-hour online show the Watsonathon to the charity.

The calendar, designed and photographed by Miranda Holms, is available here, priced £12.
