He spent 23 years at the BBC presenting the BBC One Current Affairs Programme 'Inside Out'.

On top of that he has also presented hundreds of hours of live TV.    Born on May the Fourth (Yes, Star Wars day!), 1977 (the year Star Wars was released), he was destined to be a life-long fan of the movies. Having hit upon the idea of making a documentary about the Brits behind Star Wars, he embarked on, what would become a four-year project to tell their stories. Firstly in 2017, with an hour long film, 'The Galaxy Britain Built' broadcast on BBC FOUR and BBC WORLD and then extending that to a 90 minute feature in 2019.    David has also written a book, The Galaxy Britain Built: The British Talent Behind Star Wars. (Published by U.S. publisher, BearManor Media). In 2019, he also made a 30-minute featurette about Palitoy Star Wars Toys and the phenomenon in Britain, 'Toy Empire.' Both Star Wars documentaries received widespread critical acclaim as well as Royal Television Society Awards (Programme of the Year and Post-Production).    David now runs the production company Galaxy Productions.   David also works as a media consultant and trainer with many UK and global brands including Marks and Spencer, Mini Cooper, Anglian Water, Gardline Marine Surveys, CEFAS and Bernard Matthews. He can offer bespoke training as well as corporate advice and filmmaking.   David is an experienced and regular host of prestigious industry awards ceremonies around the UK.
