Episode 15: Martin Roberts

Duration: 44 minutes

First broadcast: on BBC One WestLatest broadcast: on BBC Two Northern Ireland

Homes Under the Hammer star Martin Roberts joins legendary entertainer Brian Conley to look back at the early TV moments that set him on the path to being the man he is now.

On his trip down memory lane, Martin reveals that his early inspiration came from two very different men - the first, none other than Keith Chegwin in his Multi-Coloured Swap Shop days, and the second, Michael Palin as he journeyed Around the World in 80 Days. Martin's TV tastes were certainly eclectic, from the anarchic comedy of The Goodies to early animation in the shape of Trumpton, via the classic word game Call My Bluff. But how did all of these influences come together to make Martin one of our best-loved daytime presenters? Show less
