Rob Curling: Confessions of a Studio Anchor (FRINGE)

From news and sports studios, kids and cult quiz television shows to quantum mechanics, the cosmos, parallel universes and more. Two fantastic shows for the price of one!

Rob Curling: Studio Anchor Television news and sport anchor-man and cult TV quiz presenter Rob Curling with an hour of tales from the TV studios of Skysports, Eurosport and regional BBC newsrooms. He’ll reveal some of the hilarious horror stories of presenting live news and sports programmes, many from his own bitter personal experience. And for one night only, the return of Rob’s cult 1990s TV quiz show Turnabout and a chance for you to take part! Rob has presented sport for Sky News, fronted the tennis coverage for Eurosport, and, as a BBC stalwart, anchored the ‘red button’ coverage for virtually every major sporting event. He is the only sports anchor in history to commentate on a sport with which they share a name (yeah, curling)! And to cap it all, Rob has appeared with Basil Brush, performed with the ‘Playaway’ band and acted in series 4 of The Crown in the challenging role of ‘show-jumping commentator’.
