Frankish in March 2010

Kevin Frankish (born March 4, 1964) is a Toronto-area media personality. He co-hosts Breakfast Television Toronto alongside Dina Pugliese on Citytv Toronto.

After getting a diploma in radio and television broadcasting at Canadore College, he started his career at CKNY in North Bay. He also had a nine-year stint at The New VR (now CTV Two) in Barrie, Ontario. At CKVR, he began a practice of ending every broadcast with a wink, his way of saying "hi" to his wife Beth; this continues until present day.[1]

He then moved to Citytv in 1991.

After suffering a panic attack on the air in 2006, Frankish publicly discussed his panic attacks with viewers.[2] He also talked about it on CFRB's The Motts, hosted by Paul and Carol Mott, on September 13, 2006.
