Perhaps best known for his extensive hosting and presenting work on children’s television shows, Timmy Mallett burst onto the global stage in the 1980s when he was appointed as the presenter of the Wide Awake Club and Wacaday. With a striking visual style, Mallett’s loud shirts, comedy glasses and a giant pink foam mallet, as well as his 'utterly brilliant!' and 'bleurgh!' catchphrases, became an instant hit with kids up and down the UK.
Beginning his career on television in 1983, Timmy began presenting Summer Run on Saturday mornings for the new breakfast television station, TV-am. He then went on to become a presenter of the Wide Awake Club, a new Saturday morning children's programme which became the basis of the immensely popular Wacaday in 1985.
Since Wacaday, Timmy Mallett's colourful career has seen him presenting and appearing in a multitude of television programmes, including Oxford Road Show, Utterly Brilliant, Around the World in 80 Seconds, Way To Go, Timmy Towers, The Beeps, Big Brother's Little Brother and I'm A Celebrity...
