Jeremy VineJeremy Vine (born May, 1965, Epsom, UK) is a current affairs presenter on BBC radio and television. He was educated at Epsom College and Durham University, graduating with a first-class degree in English. He went on to a journalism training course with the Coventry Evening Telegraph before joining the BBC in 1987. His career at the BBC included reading the news on radio in Northern Ireland and working as a researcher on the BBC1 religious-affairs series Heart of the Matter. In 1989 he became a regular reporter on the Radio 4 programme Today, filing reports from across Europe, from Ireland to Siberia. In the mid-1990s he became familiar to BBC TV viewers as a political reporter, reporting on the modernisation of the Labour Party and later making a mark with his irreverent reports on the 1997 General Election. He became a regular presenter of BBC2's Newsnight in 1999, and was one of the original presenters of Broadcasting House on Radio 4. After several stints as a stand-in for Jimmy Young on Radio 2 in 2001-2002, he took over the 12 midday show permanently in January 2003, though the show became shrouded in controversy when it emerged that Young had not retired voluntarily as had originally been claimed. Vine is one of the most prominent openly Christian broadcasters in the UK and has also presented numerous religious-themed programmes for the BBC.
