Simon Barnett

Longtime Cantabrian Simon Barnett has had many encounters with the small screen. In the late 80s he spent four years as a presenter on What Now?, before going on to host a number of talent and game shows. The longtime radio DJ has also competed in Celebrity Treasure Island. In 1990 he acted in hit comedy Ruby and Rata, as the young man who gets caught up with a dodgy but lovable solo mother.

Being a radio broadcaster is a great job for me because I love people; everyone's got a story to tell and I really enjoy hearing their stories. Simon Barnett
