The Start

It all started here at the age of 11 at BBC Radio Bristol. Seen here with one of the UK's best radio talents, the late Roger Bennett host of Morning West. For any anoraks, note the PYE MKII desk. This is now in use at a radio station in the Ukraine ! It took two men to open one of those knobs !!

Nelson Mandela  

 Listen to it !

Some of the cuttings from around the world following the Mandela wind up phone call. Following the broadcast, the wind up made the headlines all over the world.

David Seaman

"Seaman bashed by the bishop", there could be a joke in there....., any way a couple of the press cuttings following the Goal scored against the England Football Team in France

Listen to it !

This was one of the many publicity photo's from his time at The Pulse. This was the show launch "stunt".....

Had to include this, Nic's first presenter card photo shoot. Love the moustache !  Notice Steve Scott (top middle), now a top ITN newsreader.

Here's one from Aladdin. Nic played the baddie alongside Lisa Riley & Ben Freeman from Emerdale, Rhino from Gladiators, & Lenny Bennett, famed for being the man with a perm. It's behind you !

Before the pies

Here's the latest from the Tuff archives, the one taken before he discovered the taste of beer, curry and pork scratchings. Here Nic is seen modelling a hair product taken on location at Weston Super Mare.
