So following on from my interview with former How 2 presenter Gareth Jones which can be found here. I am pleased to present a chat with Fred Dinenage!
Not only did Fred present How 2 alongside Gareth for the 16 year run. He was also part of the original How programme. Presenting the show alongside Jack Hargreaves, Bunty James and Jon Miller between 1966-1981. So in total, Fred presented both shows for a combined 31 years!
Aside from that. Fred presents the local news in the South East of the UK for the Meridian region (Formerly Southern Television and TVS) and also crime series Murder Casebook.
This was an interview I never thought would happen so I was delighted when Fred responded to my email and agreed to a chat. He comes across as just as warm as friendly as he does on television.
In this chat we discuss both How programmes and his memories. As well as his news career, including his time meeting the notorious Kray Twins. Enjoy!
