WHILE recording an investigative news piece for Bristol Broadcasting Community Radio last week I realised just how many of these type of pieces I have taken part in over the past 25 years.
From weekly newspaper updates for BBC Radio Scotland and BBC Radio Wales to the crazy days of 2004 when as a national Fans United organiser I seemed to be Live on BBC Radio 2, Radio 5 Live, Sky TV and various regional stations almost every day.
There are too many to count.
But, I am guessing there must be over 100 radio and TV clips of my voice out there somewhere.
Someone once said I had a face for radio… and it’s interesting, to me alone, how the early nerves disappeared somewhere along the way.
So I decided to gather together a few clips for posterity and my kids to laugh at in years to come:
