Justin Fletcher

Justin Fletcher MBE (born 15 June 1970)[1][2] is an English children's television presenter, actor and comedian, known for mainly appearing on CBeebies.

[4] While in his final year studying drama at the Guildford School of Acting, Fletcher started to regularly watch Phillip Schofield working as a continuity announcer on and was inspired to pursue a career in children's television.

[7] He was part of the Tikkabilla programme, out of which was spun Higgledy House, a slapstick comedy for children with Sarah-Jane Honeywell, which progressed to the very popular Mr Tumble.

In January 2009, an announcement by CBeebies was made that Gigglebiz would become the regular show, starting in September 2009, with the Humphrey and Captain Adorable characters being included, which was now a series of character-based comedy sketches linked by jokes told by children.

[6][9] His voice-over work for CBBC includes voicing Harold from Thomas the Tank Engine, which he has performed on BBC Radio 4, arena tour, and pantomime.

In October 2011, CBeebies began broadcasting Justin's House, starring Fletcher with Steven Kynman[11] as "Robert the Robot" and Jane Deane as "Dee Livery".

His voice appears on the VTech Turn and Learn Driver, the Bob the Builder phones, and a number of Crick Software titles.

[14] From December 2010 to January 2011, he played the character Josh the Jester in the pantomime Sleeping Beauty at the Hexagon theatre in Reading, Berkshire.

Fletcher was appointed Member of the Order of the British Empire (MBE) in the 2008 Birthday Honours for services to "children's broadcasting and the voluntary sector".
