Jason King
Biography
A son of Tenbury Wells in Worcestershire, Jason King presented radio shows in Ludlow and Bristol before moving to Hull. There, he struck up a great partnership with travel reporter Joel Ross. The duo successfully moved their show to Key 103 in Manchester, where they won a Radio Academy Gold award for Best Breakfast Show.
The radio presenters moved to Radio 1 in early 2004, where they were stuck in the oh-so-prestigious 4am slot. They were also given the weekly chart show. JK and Joel moved to Virgin Radio in 2007, and return to breakfast on Radio Aire (Leeds) in 2009.
The duo's ubiquity on lightweight entertainment shows resembled that of Ant and Dec around 2007. We're not sure which is which, but we can tell them apart from Sam and Mark. Usually.
Jason has also appeared on Celebrity Poker Club and presented BBC Three's Pure Soap.
