Employment History & Experience

Presenter on 'The Saturday Banana', with Bill Oddie, produced by Southern Television in the 1970's. This was one of ITV's networked live Saturday morning children's TV shows designed to compete with the BBC's succcessful Swap Shop.

Chris presented live, the 'animal/wildlife' slots, which included introducing viewers and the studio audience (and Bill) to snakes, large bats and toads.

Since then, Chris spent some 34 years working firstly for the Sunday Mirror, then for one of the UK's most successful and largest news & photo agencies, a role which has made him well known (and liked!) to every UK national newspaper picture desk, before choosing to move on in 2012. In any spare time he had, Chris appeared on various TV shows and featured in dozens of radio interviews, both regional and networked, live and recorded.
