Met a few over the years through work when they've done some presenting or voice overs for us - Rob Gurney, Gordon Ashley, Shaw "keep em peeled" Taylor, Tony Butler, Nick Owen, Llewella Baily, Adrian Chiles, Tom Ross are the ones people would know. The two that stick out though are Jerome Flynn and Gary Newbond. The wife's done some charity work with Flynn, you couldn't meet a nicer bloke. Newbond (which may surprise a few) was perhaps the best of the lot - it was many years ago but he sticks out as he really went the extra mile during the job, never complained, always happy if we changed a scene, stayed all evening at a boxing event after we'd finished with him to hand out some prizes and talk to guests. But the one thing that impressed me was one day during a break in filming, he took our work experience kid to one side and spent nearly half an hour with him giving him some tips on how to get on in the industry, and even some contacts if he wanted to try and get extra work experience and his foot on the ladder.
