This week on Mrs Barbara Nice and Friends, Barbara has comedy producer Steve Doherty on the show.

Steve’s first job in radio came while he was studying at Leeds University, but his career soon led him into TV - and right into the eye of the storm on Have I Got News For You. He shares what it was like to be in the office as the Angus Deayton headlines broke, and why Series 23 Episode 6 is burned into his memory forever.

But Steve is quick to say he’s always been “too nice” for television - and that’s why he prefers radio. Barbara chats with him about loving your job so much it doesn’t feel like work, his (mostly positive) feelings about the BBC, and some exciting projects still to come.
