Following a spell at Thames, he spent almost a decade as TVam's North of England correspondent, covering key regional stories such as the month-long Strangeways riot, the Manchester air disaster and fire at Bradford City's football ground.

Foreign assignments took him to Saudi Arabia during the 1990 Gulf crisis as well as Yugoslavia and the United States. Peter also fronted his own four-part documentary series.

But his links with Four by Three have had the greatest longevity. Peter's ability with the English language and nose for a great story have been put to good use writing scripts, newsletters and website articles, researching stories as well as producing and project managing the company's video output.
