Speaking to 6PR Mornings host Simon Beaumont, Mabury said he never sought a career in radio.

“I never wanted a radio career … I wish it was my brilliant idea, it was Neil Adcock’s before me, but it absolutely resonated with me. In those days, a lot of people near the edge would ring a radio station at night because there was very little else,” he said.
