Clive Pownceby

In a field where it can be difficult to differentiate one contemporary MC from another, Clive is instantly recognisable. His stage presence has settled into a serene, if skewed, approximation of Nicholas Parsons, while his approach has evolved from mild-mannered announcer into a wry, fragmented take on the anchorman’s bite, delivered in droll, atmospheric tones.

For lovers of the whimsical and obtuse,you could say Pownceby is rich and rewarding. Well, you could say that – others would be content to merely say that our boy will be compering several events this weekend. You pays yer  money!
