John worked for Exmoor National Park for ten years, where his life-long association and love of Exmoor flourished. He left to work for BBC Plymouth, from where the door to almost 25 wonderful years in radio was opened. John will explain his childhood fascination for broadcasting and the realisation of his dream to work for the BBC. His talk will cover some of the programmes he worked on for both Radio 4 and for our local Radio Devon. We will hear about ‘ordinary’ people with incredible, colourful and amusing stories to be told, many in their own words.
