Andi Peters
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Andi Peters (born 29 July 1970 in Chelsea, south-west London) is a British television presenter and executive.
He first found fame as a British TV presenter and was subsequently employed as a senior TV executive. He is mostly associated with shows for young people. Initially he presented Freetime on ITV, but reached a much wider audience with Edd the Duck and Wilson (an arm purporting to be part of a butler) in the "Broom Cupboard" slot on Children's BBC, which he presented from 1990 to 1993. He eventually left the Broom Cupboard and went on to present Live & Kicking, alongside Emma Forbes, from 1993 to 1996.
Peters' film credits include Toy Story 2 where, in a small role, he supplied the voice of 'Baggage Handler 2'. Peters became executive producer of Top of the Pops in 2003 and resigned from that role in 2005. He also created the programme T4 on Channel 4 and currently presents daytime reality show City Hospital on BBC One.
In January 2006, Andi Peters took part in ITV's reality ice-skating show Dancing on Ice. He was voted out in the second week, due to his 'awkward' and overly camp skating style. [1] Along with fellow ex-contestant Andrea McLean, he presented fan show Dancing on Ice Extra every weekday on ITV for the rest of the show's run.
Andi returned to ITV1 in June of 2006 to co-host the new Sunday morning cookery show, Sunday Feast.
Peters has also become something of a regular on BBC Radio 1's Chris Moyles Show.
Andi Peters is a massive Neighbours fan. He presented a show dedicated to the behind the scenes actions of the Australian soap. [citation needed]
