Biography

Classic-era Radio 1 DJ and Top Of The Pops and Saturday Superstore presenter. Saddled with a rather cosy image, he was the main inspiration for Paul Whitehouse's Mike Smash in the "Smashie and Nicey" sketches, and is also forever known as the man who banned "Relax" - a little unfairly, wethinks. He was also of course co-founder of the quiz-setter's friend, the Guinness Book Of British Hit Singles, which is still going today, and has written numerous other books in his own right.
