The stars aligned in Bristol on Saturday night when Jason Donovan visited his namesake kebab van on the Clifton Triangle.

The Australian actor and singer ordered a doner with garlic mayonnaise and chilli from Jason Donervan, proclaiming it “very special”.

Jason Donovan was at Jason Donervan with Andi Peters as part of Ant & Dec’s Saturday Night Takeaway on ITV.

A large crowd had gathered at the kebab van that has long been a late night favourite, especially for University of Bristol students.

There have been numerous campaigns over the years to get the former Neighbours actor to frequent the van including when he was performing at the Bristol Hippodrome, but this was his first ever visit to the site outside the former Habitat on Queen’s Road, now Beacon House Study Centre.

“Oh mate, it’s awesome man,” Donovan told Peters while sampling his meal.

“So many tastes. There’s just so much going on.”
