Three things you didn't know about Jason:

• Once walked on stage at the Clyde Auditorium in front of 1500 people and was halfway across before realizing that he had forgotten the prop vital to the scene
• He scored a five-point answer in round 2 of Only Connect (back when it was on BBC4 and no-one watched it), working out what came fourth in a sequence starting "Intake" without any further clues. This is still one of Jason's proudest moments. Prouder than forgetting the prop, at any rate...
• Fosters kittens
