News, Film and Comedy!Most of items below are interviews I have given on various space and astronomy topics. However, lurking within the list are some gems of television: there's Ready, Steady, Cook, the BBC4 panel show Mind Games, Not Going Out and Miranda. I thank you.

In Blue Peter Book 33 (2003 - 2004) saw me in my outfit for the 2002 Christmas show: Christmas at the Club.
Blue Peter Book 32 (2002 - 2003) you can see what I got up to in the Blue Peter rock and roll Christmas panto back in 2001, as well as an intriguing feature on Men in Skirts! Blue Peter Book 31 (2001 - 2002) there is a two-page guide to my Blue Peter trip in 2000 to see the telescopes of La Palma in the Canaries. Blue Peter Book 30 (2000 - 2001) I wrote a two-page 'Stargazing' feature which gave you an introduction to the night sky. It included where to find some amazing objects that you can see without a telescope. 
It’s me on the left playing a gangster in the 2002 Blue Peter Christmas Panto.
My unbelieveable portrayal of Isaac Newton in the film of his life from Blue Peter in 2002.
