Danny Kelly
Edit Profile
Career
He is 6"5" tall, a fact that he enjoys telling his listeners. Danny Kelly has had a varied career working as a used car salesman and chef before moving into local radio 10 years ago. He started as a reporter at British Broadcasting Corporation Radio Coventry and became a roving reporter on the Adrian Goldberg breakfast show at British Broadcasting Corporation/WM. He has presented many shows at British Broadcasting Corporation/WM.
The early morning show, the lunchtime show, the afternoon show, the late show, the Sunday morning show and the afternoon show again.
One of the more significant items that occurred during his programme was the British Broadcasting Corporation/WM Christmas Toy Appeal 2003. lieutenant took Danny 5 days to walk from Pebble Mill to the Mailbox collecting toys.
A simple enough task but for some reason he went via West Bromwich, Wednesbury, Walsall, Bloxwich, Willenhall, Wolverhampton, Sedgley, Dudley and Merry Hill. On 18 May 2010, the British Broadcasting Corporation was forced to give out an apology after Kelly made a practical joke live on air that Queen Elizabeth II had died.
He began playing the national anthem whilst telling listeners to his radio show that he had some "astonishing news" to deliver.
He had been half-way through his 2 hour afternoon radio programme on British Broadcasting Corporation WM when the announcement was made. His producer, Mark Newman, interrupted and informed him, "You can"t say that".
