Alan Price-Roberts or Alan Roberts (born 19 July 1946) is a British radio presenter, producer and actor. == Broadcasting career == Originally from Marlow, Buckinghamshire, Roberts was the station programme director with The Voice of Peace during a journey through the Suez Canal in January 1977. Founded by Jewish businessman Abie Nathan, the "Peace Ship" broadcast highly successfully to millions of Israeli and Arab listeners from the Mediterranean Sea off the coast of Tel Aviv. It was staffed by a multi-national group of mainly Christian DJs and crew members, and gave several young broadcasters their first taste of radio. He first started broadcasting on British radio in 1977 at BBC Radio Oxford, one of a generation of British broadcasters that included Timmy Mallett, David Freeman, Martin Stanford, Gary Richardson, Guy Michelmore and Peter Grant. After several years with the Radio Oxford, Alan joined Swansea Sound replacing John Sachs. He then moved to Severn Sound where he was Head of Music and their first voice on air. Subsequently he moved to GWR FM Bristol as afternoon presenter, replacing Paul Phear who had left to join Chiltern Radio. In 1989, Roberts joined BBC Radio 2 as the producer of ''The Gloria Hunniford Show'', then Ed Stewart and Derek Jameson. He also produced the final ''Sounds Easy'' series with David Jacobs and regular series with Benny Green, Alan Titchmarsh and Martin Kelner. He also produced documentary series on Dusty Springfield, Cher, Elkie Brooks, the ''Decca Records Story'' and ''The Vipers Tale'' a three part documentary about the life of his friend Wally Whyton. Whilst at Radio 2 Roberts clandestinely broadcast on the satellite radio network Quality Europe FM as DJ Paul Revere, presenting the Saturday Afternoon Soft Rock Show for about two months in 1990. In 1996, Roberts left Radio 2 and joined the BBC World Service where he produced Bob Holness, Tommy Vance, Sarah Ward and the last two years of ''Country Style'' with Wally Whyton before he died in 1997. He presented ''Country Style'' for a short while before the programme, closely associated with Whyton, finally ended. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Alan Roberts (broadcaster)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
