Stuart Maconie Biography

Stuart Maconie is one of the most popular and richest Radio Presenter who was born on August 13, 1961 in Whiston, England, United Kingdom.

Maconie also is credited with starting two urban legends; that Bob Holness, UK host of the game show Blockbusters, played the sax solo on Gerry Rafferty’s hit single “Baker Street” and that David Bowie invented the board game Connect Four. The stories first appeared as blatant jokes in a spoof NME’ s Believe It or Not feature, but have since been repeated elsewhere as if true. He also claimed to have been the first to use the term Britpop for the British pop music movement of the mid 1990s. “I’m sure someone must have used the expression before me about the Hollies, or the Beatles, back in the ’60s. But I was the first person to use it about bands like Oasis and Blur”.

From 1994 to 2001, he presented the satirical news review The Treatment, on BBC Radio 5 Live.
