Colin started his broadcasting career in 1968 when he first stepped up to the mic on hospital radio before joining the BBC, then commercial radio.

Over the next forty years or so he was heard on several stations in major cities across the UK before arriving in Exeter in 1996. As well as presenting shows locally and on national Digital Radio, Colin was also a manager and closely involved in the launch of Radio Exe's predecessor Exeter FM.

Throughout his career Colin has had a passion for Classic Rock music, His show in Sheffield in the 70s & 80s was the most listened-to Rock Show outside London, and he was also part of the team of the fledgeling Planet Rock nearly 20 years ago.

After taking a break from radio in 2010 Colin is delighted to be back On Air on Radio Exe hosting Sunday evenings including four The Rock Block at 8 pm where you get to choose four classic rock classics.
