Biography
Coia studied science at Glasgow, his town of birth. After doing some disco DJing, he spent some time at hospital radio before getting a role at Radio Clyde. After announcing roles failed to bring about some on-screen appearances, he grapsed the nettle and left to do chat and magazine shows, including the famous BBC 1 afternoon show Pebble Mill.
Thereafter followed a string of BBC, satellite and cable quiz shows. He is married to the former Miss Great Britain Debbie Greenwood (who herself hosted First Class and co-hosted Spellbound with Paul). Nowadays can be heard talking all over the theme music of shows on ABC1, and cackling all the way to the bank.
Trivia
His voice launched Channel 4 in 1982 (although Richard Whiteley was the first face to be seen).
