Yet again I do all the bloody work and someone pops in with the answer. Getting a bit fed up quite honestly. :roll:

Mind you I have never heard of that bloke so I wouldn't have got it. :lol:

Does he actually appear on the documentaries or is he just the voice presenting in the background? (sorry not a yes no answer!) He appears properly (visually) in the documentaries, usually I think doing a few pieces to camera.
Is what he is famous for, the same subject that he presents on the TV? Yes this is misleading as presumably he doesn't present about politics as well
Is that the same subject he writes about? Yes
Is it to do with property in any way? No
Current affairs? No

Good one MMM.... lol
Sorry Annpan I've just googled him, still never heard of him but some answers there were misleading so I didn't go down any other routes but the presenting one.

Sorry MMM :oops:
I thought he was a Lord on the labour benches rather than having been elected an MP - and most people wouldn't know him for being a politician.

He is famous for being a fertility expert (and has about 5 degrees and is currently professor at Imperial College) - he helped to develop IVF treatments amongst other techniques, he has also hosted loads of documentaries on the BBC about babies - 'Child of our time' is probably the biggest flagship program he has been involved with.


I was just trying to pick someone different from the regular entertainment bunch - sorry you thought I was misleading, I was consulting Wikipedia for most questions.

S'allright Ann, as I have no interest in either politics, fertility treatments or babies it's no wonder I have never heard of him!
