Broadcasting
I've contributed to BBC Radio 4's Excess Baggage (twice) and The Living World as well as the now extinct programmes Medicine Now and Breakaway. Thanks to phone links, I've been interviewed live on Dublin's Newstalk Radio, on Talk Radio Europe, and for assorted podcasts and programmes broadcast in the US, Canada and South Africa. I have appeared on BBC Breakfast (national television), on BBC One’s Rip-off Britain, on Sky, and Tyne Tees TV, and on numerous national and local radio shows. I have contributed many times to BBC Radio Cambridgeshire's afternoon show and on Lunchtime Live. Check out my News page for any upcoming broadcasts or events that are open to the public.
