John Fox (born 13 November 1979 in Hull) and Tom Rhys (born Thomas Rhys Bellwood on 1 June 1979 in Wanstead, London, England), better known as Foxy and Tom, were a British radio duo who presented radio shows for Viking FM and 2-Ten FM. ==Background== The pair met at the University of Lincoln when Foxy was a Media Production student and Tom studied Journalism. Both were interested in radio and got involved with the university's station Siren FM when it moved from Kingston upon Hull to Lincoln in 1999. After this Foxy got an overnight weekend slot on his home town station Viking FM and Tom joined soon after as the station's dance music guru. Both were still full-time students at the time. Soon after graduating, Foxy started on Viking FM's late show and Tom was drafted in as a character, "Geezer Tom" who would be a caricature of the Cockney wide boy with rude comments about callers and a Del Boy attitude. When it became obvious that this was Tom's natural personality anyway, they were put together to host the show. During this stint on the late show they were awarded the NTL Commercial Radio Award for Best Newcomers and listed as one of Campaign Magazine's Top 10 radio programmes in the UK. When Simon Hirst left Viking's breakfast show in September 2002 for Galaxy Yorkshire, Foxy and Tom were soon announced as his replacement. In 2006, they moved from EMAP to GCap when they started the breakfast show on 2-Ten FM, based in Reading and serving Berkshire and North Hampshire. On 30 November Tom left the company and the show re-branded as "2ten at Breakfast" with a note on the website to say that Tom had "moved on to pastures new". 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「Foxy and Tom」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
