Stortford High School where he earned the position Head Boy, his
father worked as a headmaster and his mother worked as a
special needs teacher. He started doing hospital radio at the age
of 16, this was his route in to the radio industry. The reason I look
up to Greg James is because he is everything I want to be, and in
my opinion he is everything a radio presenter should be, he’s
funny and gets the listeners involved on his show
