Horrid Go Ahead Boy
Horrid Go Ahead Boy 
?I suppose our five minutes of international fame came as the hostages began to emerge from Beirut. They all said how much they valued BBC World Service, which they heard on Terry Waite?s small radio. And in particular they said how much Outlook had kept them sane and in touch. Most of them came to see us; Terry Waite was an old friend? Tom Sutherland came, Terry Anderson and John McCarthy who then stood in from time to time as an Outlook presenter.?

From the United Nations in New York to the Brandenburg Gate in Berlin, from the Himalayas to Somalia, John Tidmarsh?s career as a BBC journalist and broadcaster ? and particularly as a presenter of BBC World Service?s most popular programme, Outlook ? has taken him all over the globe and involved him in numerous exciting and dangerous adventures.

In this book, John Tidmarsh, or the ?Horrid go-ahead boy? as Noel Coward called him, has woven the many stray threads of his life into a memoir to beguile the general reader and delight his loyal fans everywhere.
