Greg is an award-winning TV & Radio Science Presenter & Producer, popular Keynote Speaker, experienced Events Host, long-time YouTuber, and… hybrid athlete?!
If you’re looking for him he’ll likely be investigating the bold marketing claims of a trending ‘wonder product’ for his popular BBC Radio 4 show & podcast “Sliced Bread”, or sharing consumer tips about those on BBC Morning Live.
If not, then he may be off on another science adventure to incredible labs around the world (he recently returned from the Amazon Rainforest), or – most likely – he’ll be competing in a hybrid fitness race (he recently won Silver at the HYROX European Championships!)
Greg has been making science content on TV, Radio, YouTube, Podcast, & Stage for close to 20 years (gulp!):
> from investigative documentaries on TV, Radio & Podcasts,
> to ambitious interactive live shows for families on YouTube,
> to eye-catching experiments on live TV,
> and engaging keynotes & spectacular science shows.

Greg is passionate about a transition to electric, has investigated Electric Vehicles for podcasts, contributed multiple videos to the popular YouTube channel “Fully Charged”, and drives an EV.
Greg’s BBC Radio 4 series looked for the facts behind the fads, investigating whether product claims were indeed ’The Best Thing Since Sliced Bread?’ or simply BS.
The second series of Greg’s podcast for Which? investigates how secure your smart tech really is. Greg has spoken to dozens of leading experts in this area and written & produced rich editorial on multiple subjects in this area.
