Jeremy Nicholas                                

Jeremy is an award-winning broadcaster and journalist who moves between news, sport and entertainment with effortless ease.  He has the ability to be informative and entertaining at the same time. It’s a skill that’s been much in demand through his career with BBC Sport, Channel 5, ITV Digital, 5 Live, GLR and Talk Sport. He also runs his own company, Talking Toolbox, and is the co-author of "MediaMasters".

Jeremy got into radio at university, to keep him sane during his engineering degree. A postgraduate course in radio journalism followed, leading to his first job as a news reporter at Viking Radio in Hull. Moving into sport he joined Radio Nottingham and then returned to his native London to join GLR. At Nottingham he won a New York Award for his live commentary at the Hillsborough Disaster. At GLR his breakfast show won a Sony Award. On TV he presented live European and international football on Channel Five and then Champions League for On Digital. 

The radio quiz show he devised, ‘Sick as a Parrot’, also transferred to TV with him as the host. He wrote and presented five series of the show on BBC Radio 5 Live. He is also the match-day announcer at West Ham United, a team he’s supported all his life, having grown up in East London. Not many stand-up comics or TV journalists can claim to do stadium gigs to 36 thousand screaming fans.
