After he performed before Queen Victoria in 1844 at Windsor Castle, Wallett began promoting himself as "the Queen's Jester," and described himself this way in the title of his 1870 autobiography.

While often a rolling stone, Wallett frequently found himself working with Pablo Fanque, and thus, many of his most noteworthy stories either concern Fanque or his time performing in Fanque's circus. Wallett speaks of a routine he devised for a show in Oxford concerning freehold land rights:He claims to have observed the following while fishing with Fanque on The Isis, the stretch of The Thames that runs through Oxford:Then, he describes how he responded to the most unusual event that occurred during his performance with Pablo Fanque's circus in Wakefield:Wallett was on-hand for another tragedy that befell Pablo Fanque's Circus in Leeds in March 1848. This occurred during a benefit for Wallett. He describes it in his autobiography:".
