Bob Harris (radio)
Bob Harris (born in Northampton on April 11 1946) is a former BBC Radio 1, BBC 6 Music and current BBC Radio 2 DJ, probably best known for presenting the long running BBC "serious" rock music show The Old Grey Whistle Test throughout the 1970s.
Nicknamed "Whispering" Bob Harris, his hippy-style beard and laid-back presentation made him a favourite target for parody, most notably by Eric Idle on the 1970s BBC comedy show Rutland Weekend Television.
Harris presents a miscellaneous alternative music show on Saturday Evenings on BBC Radio 2 called 'Bob Harris at the Weekend' and a country music show, also on BBC Radio 2.
