Biography

Respected journalist for the Irish Times during the 1970s. It was only after he conquered his fear of flying that he came to Britain to pursue his TV and radio career. To us, he was pretty much unknown until Game For a Laugh - but it has to be said that hosting the really quite tacky and inane 'Monkey Business' was certainly not his best career move. In the 1990s he was a regular fixture on Classic FM, and currently presents on BBC Radio Berkshire.
