Jeff Brazier
Jeff Brazier is one of the UK’s most loved and in demand TV presenters who has hosted some of the biggest shows on British television.
Jeff is a highly experienced and technically capable presenter equally at home in a live or prerecorded studio environment, on OB, with auto-cue and live direction and is able to put even the most challenging guests at ease as well as a fantastic relationship with his live audiences which all makes for great programming. This August he was handed the reins of Channel 5’s daily magazine show, OK!TV, which goes out every week day at 6.25pm. He has also been given the role of This Morning’s ‘X Factor’ correspondent on ITV1 which he'll be presenting live every Monday throughout the series.
Over the last few years we have seen him as a live OB presenter for the X Factor finals, as a presenter for ITV2’s I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here Now in Australia, and as a co-presenter on Sky 1′s Angela and Friends. He also won a lot of new fans when he reached the quarter-finals of this year’s Dancing On Ice competition for ITV1.
As well as presenting, Jeff has been the face of many successful commercial campaigns for the likes of BSkyB/Skyride, Suzuki and Clothes Show Live; to name but a few. He also writes a weekly parenting column in the Daily Mirror, a parenting blog for Mamas and Papas, as well as an agony uncle column for Closer magazine. He also wrote a weekly blog for MSN for 3 months during and after his time on Dancing on Ice.
Jeff is 32 and lives in Harlow, Essex and was originally a professional footballer, signed to Leyton Orient FC but had to retire after succumbing to injury problems, but he stills plays football and is often involved in charity matches.
He has two young sons, Bobby, and Freddie, and from his experiences of being a single-parent he came up with the programme idea for Superdaddy which was broadcast by Living TV. He has also recently developed and presented a programme for BBC3 My Brother and Me which was broadcast in December 2010 amidst much critical acclaim.
