Beginning of Presenting Career

Initially a farming reporter before moving on to sport and news, he became, at the age of 21, the youngest ever anchorman in the ITV regions, hosting Ulster Television’s hour-long early evening programme Good Evening Ulster.

In 1986 he was one of the faces who launched daytime television on BBC1, with the daily phone-in programme Open Air and also presented BBC1's Holiday for many years.
