"Going for - going for - going for - GOLD!" That familiar and catchy theme tune will always remind DS of the arrival of the dapper and charming presenter Henry Kelly on daytime European quiz show Going For Gold. Bringing a bit of sparkle and plenty of charisma to the nation's living rooms, Kelly helmed the complex rounds (Four In A Row, Who Am I?) and carried the show masterfully for nine years.
The Irish-born presenter began his career as a serious journalist for the Irish Times and Radio 4's World Tonight before switching to light entertainment. He became a household name as part of LWT's hilarious Game For A Laugh - with Jeremy Beadle, Sarah Kennedy and non-relation Matthew Kelly - and also as a popular radio DJ, who was involved with the launch of Classic FM in 1992. Despite declaring himself bankrupt in 2003, he has since gone on to work with LBC, BBC Radio Berkshire, Classic FM again and Sky News on Sunday mornings.
