AN entertainer from Parbold got his first break on television in 1980.
Ventriloquist Dawson Chance was awarded his own television series “Take a Chance." The former Butlins redcoat told the Advertiser at the time: “It is a situation comedy show and I play myself, an aspiring ventriloquist and working the puppets.”
Dawson’s puppets included a tortoise, a Scottish donkey and a seven foot kangaroo. Dawson has starred in many shows including Crackerjack and most recently starred along side Brian Conley in Cinderella.
