Prior to his broadcasting career, Bob had a job in a Newcastle insurance office, then joined the RAF; then travelled through America.〔From the flyleaf of Hobo: A Vagabond in America by Bob Langley (ISBN 0 7091 6335 5) published 1977〕 He began his broadcast career in the early days of Tyne Tees television on the nightly news programme. "The early days could be a bit catastrophic, a real string and sealing wax job," he said. "There weren't too many of us who really knew what we were doing. We didn't even have an autocue, and when we had it was like a giant toilet roll, but we had an awful lot of fun." From 1970 he was a reporter on ''Nationwide''. It was as a result of his and fellow presenter Donny MacLeod's success on the show that they were reassigned to launch ''Pebble Mill'' in 1972.〔 〕 Langley also wrote several novels, including ''The War of the Running Fox'' (1978).〔 ==References== 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「Bob Langley」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
