Jeremy Vine is a broadcaster and journalist. Born in Epsom, Surrey, on 17th May 1965, he is the older brother of Tim Vine and Sonya Vine.
Jeremy's first professional role was as a journalist intern on the Coventry Evening Telegraph in 1986. From there, he branched out into reporting, including as an intern working on the BBC's Today radio series. Jeremy continued to work for the BBC for over 30 years, both in television and radio. Not only did he work on shows with political elements, such as Panorama (1953), but it was while recording a piece for Jeremy's radio show that Gordon Brown made the much-reported "bigoted woman" remark that became a pivotal moment in Brown's political career.
While known as a political broadcaster, including reporting for UK General Election (1950), Vine also worked in lighter fields, such as presenter of over 200 episodes of Points of View (1961), and as a contestant in Strictly Come Dancing (2004). He has also occasionally portrayed "himself" in fictional works, such as in Vote Skul (2011) and Peter Pan Goes Wrong (2016).
Despite the majority of his work being with the BBC Corporation, in 2018 he began his own series for Channel 5, Jeremy Vine (2018).
