Chris brings an essential energy to any script he is presenting. His dynamism and natural read bring a script to life whether on autocue or not. Once, when he was asked to read for a newsreader role, he was told that he had “a very cheeky left eyebrow.” Now, if a more serious reading is necessary, his left eyebrow keeps its cheekiness off set until called for.

There were several rounds and a finale involving cold gunge if memory serves. More recently, he has been question deviser-in-chief for two Radio 5Live quizzes. The thirst for quizzical knowledgey type stuff is constant and, as such, he is a regular at the Old Dairy quiz in N4.
