QUOTAGES FROM INDUSTRY LUMINARIES ABOUT THAT GREG:


"It is a source of constant amazement to me that Greg Scott is not yet a star of the highest magnitude. His brain (roughly the size of an airship) knows the elusive "how to..." of presenting both television and radio. He is a consummate professional with a ready wit and is that most elusive of performers: a reliable, trusted and talented one. You don't often get those three bits together. His grasp of a format and his instinctive ability to bring out the best in everything is only a small part of the entire package - and that package (standing at around six feet high) is one of the best, nicest, personable, joyful packages I have ever known. Do yourself and him a good deed. Book him at once!"
Danny Greenstone, former Fremantlemedia Executive Producer, Entertainment

"Greg Scott - fantastic with people and a truly excellent live host."
Michael Leggo, former Head of Light Entertainment, BBC Television

"Greg Scott was the lead presenter of a talkbackTHAMES ITV show for me a few years ago, and was an extremely successful choice as our host. Viewers loved him and cast and crew were delighted to work with Greg who became an integral member of the team behind the scenes as well as in front of the camera. He was warm, funny and personable and built a very dedicated fan base for the programme."
Alex Mahon, Group President, Shine

"Greg is a joy to work with; He's enthusiastic, cheerful and as professional as you can get."
Howard Huntridge, Senior Executive Producer, Worldwide Entertainment, FremantleMedia

I had the pleasure of first working with Greg in 2005 at FremantleMedia, when I booked him to host Quizmania for ITV1 (after being a big fan of his work for some time). Greg is simply one of the most talented and creative presenters working in British television today. He exceeded my expectations and demonstrated an incredible talent at hosting live television and game shows. He was reliable, professional and dependable. It was an honour to work with Greg Scott and I would highly recommend him for any production.
Chuck Thomas, former Head of Programming, FremantleMedia


"Over the years I have worked with the very best talent in the entertainment world on both sides of the Atlantic. Greg is truly a hidden gem that would hold his own against the best of them. His knowledge of the entertainment world is only matched by his passion and his professionalism."
Jim Brown, former Head of Entertainment, Scottish, Anglia, Yorkshire TV

"Working with Greg was a sheer delight - Professional, talented and all with unrelenting good-humoured energy."
Nick Thorogood, Head of Factual, Entertainment & Formats, BBC Vision

"Greg did a brilliant job of our English speaking pilot; It's a pity he's not French!
A great show needs a great host and he's one of them!"
Francis Vacher, CEO, French TV

"Fantastic in bed."
