An entertaining talk about my 25 years working as a presenter, commentator and producer at BBC Radio Leicester. Looking at the some of the high spots (and low spots), interesting interviewees and big events (from visits by HM the Queen to the Richard III's discovery and Leicester City winning the Premier League.) I also look at the huge changes in technology and how they've influenced broadcasting over those 25 years.

About Dave Andrews

I am a former BBC Radio Leicester presenter and producer. Before that I was a Deputy Headteacher in a Leicestershire comprehensive school. My degree was in history where I specialised particularly in Medieval history at York University. I am also currently a Deputy Lieutenant of Leicestershire where, filling in for the Lord Lieutenant, I may be called upon to represent HM The King at certain events. I am also Honorary President of a local Amateur Theatre Company and have written and produced shows which have been performed at Leicester's Curve Theatre.
