Neil started his long and illustrious career in radio in 1984. He joined Radio Wyvern with a show entitled Mellow Yellow. Broadcast on Friday and Saturday nights, Neil built up a solid following, earning the primetime slot of weekday evenings between 6:00 PM and 9:00 PM. He also had a stint presenting the weekday afternoon show before moving to Capital Radio in 1987.
Neil started on the popular radio station presenting alternative weekday evening shows with Pat Sharp. Neil moved back to late evening shows with a Saturday evening show entitled Dr Fox’s Midnight Surgery. Adopting the moniker Dr Fox, Neil developed a cult following as his show presented club favourites and rising stars. A hallmark of the show was Dr Fox’s banter with callers. The success of this format led to his show being added to weekday evenings as well as the weekend.
After having established himself, Neil hit his stride and was given the role of presenting the Sunday afternoon Network Chart Show. The Network Chart Show eventually became the hit40uk and grew in stature overtaking the official Top 40 show on BBC Radio 1. Neil maintained his late-night show alongside this hit show. Near the end of the millennium he took over the drive-time show from David Jensen. After leaving Capital FM, Neil had several shows on Magic 105.4 and Thames Radio.
Neil has made several appearances on television including as a judge on Pop Idol. Alongside Pete Waterman, Nicki Chapman, and Simon Cowell, Neil was among the first judges of the popular talent show, drawing millions of viewers and jumpstarting the careers of some of the UK’s favourite artists.
A talented presenter with experience in front of the camera and on stage, Neil is an instant headliner and a must for any event. Book this legend of the airwaves to impress your guests.
