34 Stories from a Life in TV Radio and Online
Philip Hilton did what most people wouldn’t do, he made a successful media career relocating to where opportunity presented itself. An early dream of life behind the microphone started in Ireland on Pirate radio with all the hilarious curiosities of rural Irish life to the slick, number one rated super-pirate in Dublin. Then back in the UK, there was radio presenting, TV presenting, production and his own commercial radio station to start, each opportunity giving a unique relationship with the viewer and listener and not always in a good way! A media job in Saudi Arabia was a fitting climax to a long, varied and diverse career celebrating culture and enthusiasm for a life in the media.
