The Dale Winton Story: One of a Kind will air on Channel 5 this evening
His face recognisable anywhere, his friendly demeanour appealing and the shows he fronted? Perfect TV. The Dale Winton Story: One of A Kind, airing on Channel 5 tonight at 8.40pm, will explore Dale's rise to fame.
Dale started to DJ in Richmond, in 1972 and met radio presenter Steve Allen. The pair remained firm friends - even living together for a time - while Dale flitted between jobs. It was in 1982 that Dale moved to London and began entertaining on the city's club scene. It led to him getting a number of jobs in radio before getting into TV.
"I did countless interviews over the years and I was always waiting for the question. It never came. It became a game, the ambiguity of it all." He went on to marry model Nell McAndrew for a TV stunt in 2004. "I always thought, 'get over yourself'. But my mum died of it. It exists and anybody out there who has had it knows it exists. I didn't want to put one foot in front of the other but for a couple of really good friends.
