Eric Monkman went to the University of Toronto law school, dropped out of the Cambridge economics Ph.D. program and ended up as a British media phenomenon. He became widely known as a contestant on University Challenge, a British game show. People around the world are drawn to trivia quizzes, but Britain has a broader cultural affection for the shows. Many programs are being broadcast in the country, and several are during prime time on major networks, with well-known hosts like Jeremy Paxman and Stephen Fry.

Being a contestant on University Challenge does not bring you fame in most cases. Monkman just had the charm needed to bring him celebrity status. He was set apart from the others with his ‘70s bowl-cut hairstyle and brow-furrowed delivery. He hit the buzzer more than anyone else and with an unselfconscious intensity fired off the most correct answers. The fans just adored him. His fans began the hashtag #monkmania on Twitter. Within a few months, Monkman and his best friend Bobby Seagull joined forces and started Monkman and Seagull’s Polymathic Adventure, a radio series. They also co-authored a book, The Monkman and Seagull Quiz Book, which has been published. The team at Canadian Visa Expert is ready to help you apply for the needed visa to live and work in Canada.
Once he started receiving calls from reporters, publishers, producers, and agents, he realized his fan base might help him start a whole new career. “I have attracted a level of attention that I’d never attracted before in my life,” Monkman said. The new show he co-hosts features him and Seagull cruising around Britain in a Mini Cooper, visiting historical landmarks and quirky museums in England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland. Living in Oakville, Canada, Monkman is waiting to see what happens next in his adventurous career. Canadian Visa Expert will help you fulfill your dream of living and working in Canada.
