Phil Trow's Breakfast Show

All the latest news, travel, weather and sport with Phil.

Phil started his radio career in the Midlands in 1986 and has since worked with everyone from Robbie Williams to Emily Bishop!

However, for his first foray into the world of breakfast on 大象传媒 Radio Derby, he was renamed Phil Snow as he sat in during the bad weather in the early part of 2010.

Phil achieved a number one single in Staffordshire, the 'Telethon Rap'. He was also served his tea by Robbie - when the pop superstar in waiting was on work experience at his radio station!

He joined 大象传媒 Radio Manchester in 1990 (when it was 大象传媒 GMR) where he interviewed his most daunting guest to date - Margaret Thatcher.

He also carelessly lost the Lord Mayor down the back of a massive inflatable frog! He was part of the team that won a Sony Radio award for coverage of the IRA bomb attack in Manchester. The explosion happened while Phil was on-air.

He was also a regular presenter on the 大象传媒 North West Children in Need TV show.

Phil diversified in the 90's and became the 'warm-up' man for Children's 大象传媒, working on programmes like 'Live and Kicking' and 'Get your own back' - he says he still has the gunge stains.

He has also pruned roses with Alan Titchmarsh and made lasagne with Gordon Ramsay.

Phil has tried his hand at acting, appearing in Coronation Street and in panto. He even played 'Gary Lineker' in the stage play 'An evening with ...'.

He joined 大象传媒 Radio Lancashire in 2004 and last year headed back to the Midlands to present various programmes for 大象传媒 Radio Derby.
