Paul Sinha has shared his anger after a fan asked to have a photo with him but tried to hide his ‘shaky hand’, which is due to him having Parkinson’s.
The Chase star, known as The Sinnerman, has been open about living with Parkinson’s since he was diagnosed with the progressive neurological disease in 2019, the same year he got married and became British Quiz Champion Of The Year.
He revealed that an audience member at his recent stand-up comedy gig had cruelly and thoughtlessly asked her friend to hide Paul’s ‘shaky hand’ when she asked for a snap together after the show.
Paul tweeted: ‘To the audience member who asked for a postgig photo and asked her friend taking it to “hide his shaky hand”, i want you to know that the smile on my face hides pure hatred.’
He added: ‘I ought to say that the rest of the audience were delightful, Ashby is always a great gig, and she was not a local.’
One fan commented: ‘You know you can say “Actually no, I think I’ll pass”’, to which Paul replied: ‘I’d just finished a closing set and people were queueing up for photos. 99% of whom were lovely and polite.
‘I took the pragmatic route of not causing a scene, or losing my temper because there were still people queueing, and I didn’t want to spoil their evening.’
Another follower told Paul he was a ‘bigger person’ than they would have been in the same situation, to which he replied: ‘I’m not. On another night I’d have lost it.’
Parkinson’s UK says that around 145,000 people in the UK are living with Parkinson’s, describing it as ‘the fastest growing neurological condition in the world’.
While symptoms usually start to present themselves when people are over the age of 50, approximately one in 20 people who have the disease may experience symptoms when they’re under the age of 40, according to the NHS.
Parkinson’s disease is a condition where parts of the brain become increasingly damaged over time, with the main symptoms being slow movement, inflexible muscles and tremors, the NHS outlines, however there are a variety of other symptoms including insomnia, memory problems and depression.
