Jason Donovan became one of the biggest heartthrobs of the 1980s when he joined the cast of Neighbours as Scott Robinson.

Outside Neighbours, he famously played the title charater in Joseph and the Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat, and made his British panto debut in 2021.

Jason has released five studio albums in his career, including 1989's number one Ten Good Reasons. His most recent was 2012's Sign of Your Love.

In 2021, he took part in ITV's Dancing on Ice, but where is he from and how old is he now? Here's all the important facts you need:
