Hello!

Hello, I'm Lee Bannister and you're very welcome to my personal website. I've worked in Radio and Television in all sorts of ways since 1989 and I love it, so here you can read a bit about what I've done in the past and what I'm doing now! Many pages feature audio and/or video too. I also produce programmes under the "UpAndHappy!" banner - follow the link at the very top of the screen. I'm adding more stuff all the time, and if you'd like to get in touch, then I'm on social media or you can send a message through the website.

12 years ago the ATV Land group - of which I was part - won an international film makers award. The 2 ATV documentary series led to many and varied projects for each of us in the team, and we all remain so proud of those original programmes we made.
