This is Adam Gitlin — although you may know him as Eugene the Librarian, the nerdy poet who created quite a stir on this year’s Britain’s Got Talent show on ITV.
Mr Gitlin, a dentist (the teeth in the picture are fake) who lives in Plymouth, went on the programme to help establish himself as a stand-up comic.
His alter-ego, an amusing, self-deprecating poet, received a standing ovation, was described by judge Simon Cowell as “pretty remarkable” and has since attracted more than 2.1 million viewers on YouTube.
Although Mr Gitlin, 37, did not make the final 40, he is more determined than ever to do comedy poetry and is now planning his comeback in the next series of the hit show.
