Les Martini are father and 2 sons. Father (Lorenzo) is on the left with the guitar. In the middle is David (sometimes known as David Massot) and Serge is the white-face. I've seen them in both Britain and France, and I think they're good. Scott and Muriel I think you know. I saw them in the Christmas circus at Theater Carre in Amsterdam a few years ago, and enjoyed them. Different. The only time I've seen Grandma live was at Kronebau in March 2007. The general concensus of opinion amongst British circus buffs is that the exercise machine routine is brilliant, but otherwise he doesn't really do much, but does it beautifully. The other clown act at Monte Carlo this year was Donimo, whom I remember from his earlier days on the junior scene within British magic, since when he's developed the comedy aspect. Shades of both Keaton and Laurel. Way back then, off-stage he was Don Baker (hence DONimo, I presume), but in all the reviews of Monte Carlo that I've seen, it's been Jonathan Baker. I know he married an American girl and moved out yonder, but I heard that he was more interested in corporate work than the commercial sector. Could be wrong.

Yes, you are wrong...LOL :)
He is married to a Chilean lady from Santiago Capital and now living in Spain. Regarding corporate work yes, he does work on this area but it is not is first choice. He works also in theater and different venues.He is all over the world he he he.
I saw him as he is one of my good friends. His performance is nice, subtle and simple but funny.He is still Donimo.
