"Paul Roberts, former lead singer with The Stranglers takes over the role of Mephistopheles Smith for the remainder of the 2007 Cloven Hooves Tour. One of music's most charismatic charmers, Paul brings Richard O'Brien's devil to life in his own unique style."

Paul will soon start rehearsals with Groundlings Theatre Company in Southsea where he will be playing the role of Pop Larkin in the world premiere of "The Darling Buds of May-Perfick." This is a musical based on the work or H.E Bates and written by David Burton, formerly a member of the cast of Only Fools & Horses. The show will run for a week in April 2008 at The Kings Theatre, Southsea Albert Road, Southsea as a trial to see if the company can raise enough interest to finance a West End production.

Christopher Paul Roberts (12 October 1951 - 9 June 1977) was an English cricketer who played one first-class and one List A game for Worcestershire in 1974.

Born in Cleethorpes, Roberts played for Worcestershire's second team many times between 1971 and 1973, as well as appearing twice for Lincolnshire in the Minor Counties Championship. In mid-August 1974, he produced a startling return of 8-13 for Worcestershire II against Lancashire II in a very low-scoring game that was over in a single day. blank">Lancashire Second XI v Worcestershire Second XI, Second Eleven Championship 1974, CricketArchive.

After this performance, Roberts was immediately called up to the first team for the _John Player League game against Surrey. He took 2-32 (including the wicket of Geoff Howarth) from his eight overs in a match curtailed by the weather (Worcestershire were adjudged the winners on run rate), and was picked to play against Glamorgan in the County Championship at the end of the month. He managed only a single wicket in his 21 overs, that of Arthur Francis.

In 1975 Roberts played only minor cricket, mostly for the Worcestershire second team but also one of the warm-up matches for the World Cup, a 55-over game in which he took the wicket of Gundappa Viswanath. This match did not have List A status, despite the strong sides fielded by both teams.

Roberts died in the Cumberland Lake District aged only 25, at Raven Crag, Coombe Ghyl, Borrowdale.
