Mark Goodier

Mark Goodier (born 9 June 1961) is a British radio disc jockey and broadcaster, best known for presenting the UK Top 40 chart show on BBC Radio 1 during the 1990s and for hosting Pick of the Pops on BBC Radio 2 since 2024.^[1]^[2] Born in Salisbury, Rhodesia (now Harare, Zimbabwe), Goodier moved with his family to North Wales shortly after his birth and then to Edinburgh, Scotland, when he was eight years old.^[1] He began his broadcasting career as a mobile DJ in Edinburgh in the late 1970s, before joining local stations including the pirate station Telstar, Radio Forth, Radio Tay—where he hosted the breakfast show at age 19—Radio Clyde, and Metro Radio.^[1] Goodier joined BBC Radio 1 in 1987, initially presenting the Saturday night show and Weekend Breakfast Show, and later the Evening Session from 1990 to 1993, which helped promote emerging indie and alternative music acts.^[1]^[2] He became the voice of the station's flagship UK Top 40 chart rundown from 1990 to 2002, also briefly hosting the weekday breakfast show in 1993 and appearing as a presenter on the BBC television programme Top of the Pops.^[1]^[2] In 2000, he co-founded the audio production company Wise Buddah with songwriter Bill Padley.^[3] After leaving Radio 1 in 2002, Goodier transitioned to commercial radio, joining Classic FM to present its weekly classical chart from January 2003 while occasionally standing in on BBC Radio 2.^[3] He hosted a mid-morning show on Smooth Radio from 2007 to 2012 and has served as the voiceover artist for the Now That's What I Call Music! compilation series since 1992.^[1] In November 2016, at age 55, Goodier suffered a stroke but made a full recovery, crediting the quick actions of his wife, Jacqueline, and daughter in recognising the symptoms and seeking immediate medical help; he later became a supporter of the Stroke Association.^[4]^[5] Goodier returned to BBC Radio 2 for occasional specials, including festive editions of Pick of the Pops in 2016, and in April 2024 was announced as the permanent host of the long-running programme following the death of Steve Wright, beginning in July of that year.^[2]

Early Life

Childhood and Education

Mark Goodier was born on 9 June 1961 in Salisbury, Southern Rhodesia (now Harare, Zimbabwe), to British parents Rawdon and Judy Goodier.^[6] He has two brothers, Martin and Anthony.^[6] The family relocated shortly after his birth, first to Llanfairfechan in North Wales when he was three months old, before settling in Newington, Edinburgh, Scotland, when Goodier was eight years old (1969).^[6]^[7]^[1] Goodier attended George Heriot's School in Edinburgh, where he began developing a strong interest in music and radio during his formative years.^[8]^[6] As a child, he played the double bass in the Edinburgh Youth Orchestra until the age of 12, fostering his early engagement with music.^[6] At around age 12, he discovered BBC Radio 1 and became captivated by its programming, later recalling, "I couldn’t believe it: I was enthralled. After that I never tuned to anything else."^[6]^[9] His passion for broadcasting was further inspired by listening to Radio Luxembourg and the remaining pirate radio stations, which influenced his aspiration to become a DJ.^[6]^[10] At age 14, these interests led him to begin presenting a half-hour request show on Mayfield Hospital Radio in Edinburgh.^[6]

Initial Career in Local Radio

Mark Goodier began his broadcasting journey as a mobile DJ in Edinburgh during the late 1970s, performing at youth clubs, private parties, and local events to develop his skills in music selection and audience engagement.^[11]^[1] His entry into formal radio came in the early 1980s at the pirate station Telstar, a local free radio outlet in Edinburgh, where he handled general presenting duties and gained initial on-air experience amid the station's limited but enthusiastic broadcasts.^[11]^[12] In 1980 (aged 18), Goodier joined Radio Forth, presenting shows and quickly building popularity in the Edinburgh area through his energetic style and live broadcasts that connected with local listeners.^[11]^[13] He later moved to Radio Tay in 1981 (aged 19), hosting the Breakfast Beat show starting 26 January, and continued at other Scottish independent stations. From 1982 to 1987, he worked at Radio Clyde in Glasgow, presenting the Sunday chart show, Check It Out, and other slots. He then joined Metro Radio in Newcastle upon Tyne before moving to BBC Radio 1 in 1987.^[1]^[13] These early roles helped Goodier cultivate a regional fanbase, with his live event coverage and consistent airtime fostering listener loyalty across central Scotland before transitioning to larger platforms.^[14]^[15]

BBC Radio 1 Career

Key Radio Programs

Mark Goodier joined BBC Radio 1 in 1987 as a weekend presenter, initially hosting shows that helped him build a rapport with listeners before transitioning to more prominent slots.^[14] Over the following years, he advanced to prime-time programming, contributing to the station's evolving music-focused format during a period of significant change in British radio.^[14] One of his key early roles was co-developing and presenting The Evening Session from 1990 to 1993, a program dedicated to alternative and emerging music that featured live studio sessions with artists.^[14] The show emphasized cutting-edge tracks alongside current hits, including in-depth conversations with bands, and became a platform for influential acts in the alternative scene.^[16] Notable sessions included Nirvana's performance of tracks like "Been a Son," "Polly," "Aneurysm," and "Something in the Way" recorded on November 9, 1991, at BBC Maida Vale Studios, which captured the band's raw energy just before their mainstream breakthrough.^[17] Goodier's hosting style on the program balanced accessibility with enthusiasm for indie sounds, helping to bridge mainstream pop with underground influences.^[18] Goodier also hosted the UK Top 40 singles chart show in two periods: from 1990 to 1992 and again from 1995 to 2002, delivering professional, engaging countdowns that became a staple for chart enthusiasts.^[19] During the Britpop era, his episodes highlighted the genre's dominance, with memorable broadcasts such as the August 20, 1995, show that showcased hits from Oasis, Blur, and other key players in the movement.^[20] His role involved detailed analysis of chart movements and artist insights, often tying into his concurrent Top of the Pops appearances for enhanced visibility across BBC platforms.^[20] In 1993, Goodier took over the Radio 1 Breakfast Show starting October 25, presenting it for three months in an effort to inject fresh energy into the morning slot with a mix of upbeat music, news updates, and listener interaction.^[14] Despite the challenges in capturing a broad morning audience, the program featured innovative elements like phone-in segments and celebrity interviews to engage younger listeners during peak commute times.^[21] Throughout his tenure, Goodier incorporated interactive features such as listener requests and live calls across his shows, alongside high-profile interviews with artists, which added a personal touch to Radio 1's programming.^[14]

Television and Other Contributions

During his tenure at BBC Radio 1, Mark Goodier expanded his presence into television, most notably as a presenter on Top of the Pops on BBC One from 1988 to 1996. In this role, he introduced performances of the week's chart hits, provided visual rundowns of the UK singles chart, and conducted interviews with emerging and established artists, leveraging his radio expertise in music trends to enhance the show's appeal to a broad audience.^[22] His contributions helped maintain the program's status as a key platform for pop music visibility during the late 1980s and 1990s. Goodier also participated in other BBC television endeavors linked to his radio work, including voiceover duties for the Top 20 chart rundown on Top of the Pops from 1997 to 2002, which extended his chart narration from audio to visual media. Additionally, as a professional voice artist, he provided promos and announcements for BBC music programming, further integrating his broadcasting skills across platforms.^[22]^[1] These efforts underscored the cross-media impact of his chart knowledge, originally honed on Radio 1's Top 40 show. Goodier's departure from BBC Radio 1 in December 2002 came after 15 years with the station, influenced by its strategic shift toward younger presenters to align with evolving listener demographics. At age 41, he was seen as emblematic of an older guard amid falling audiences for traditional chart formats, though the BBC emphasized that his contract was simply concluding rather than a dismissal tied to ratings.^[23]^[24] Following his exit, he undertook freelance presenting opportunities before transitioning to a full-time role at Classic FM in early 2003, marking the end of his primary BBC era.^[3]

Post-BBC Commercial Career

Major Stations and Roles

After leaving BBC Radio 1 in 2002, Mark Goodier joined Classic FM as a presenter, hosting the station's chart countdown show.^[3] In 2007, he transitioned to Smooth Radio, where he hosted the mid-morning program from weekdays, delivering adult contemporary music content until his departure in September 2012 to focus on his production company.^[25]^[26] Following his departure from Smooth Radio, Goodier continued with occasional commercial radio commitments, including a syndicated show produced by Blue Revolution that aired on stations such as Live 95FM in 2013.^[27] In November 2016 and again in 2017, Goodier suffered strokes that temporarily interrupted his broadcasting, but he recovered and returned to radio. From 2017, he presented a series of special programmes on Absolute Radio focusing on music icons' careers.^[4]^[28] Goodier also held positions at Real Radio (which rebranded to Heart FM in 2014 under Global ownership), presenting the Smash Hits Chart and contributing to national drivetime and specialist music slots during the mid-2000s.^[29] From 2019 to 2024, Goodier maintained a prominent role at Greatest Hits Radio as a senior presenter and occasional program contributor, handling mid-morning and weekend breakfast shifts focused on classic hits from the 1970s to 1990s.^[30]^[31]

Notable Programs and Events

During his commercial radio phase, Mark Goodier hosted the Smash Hits Chart, a syndicated Top 40 countdown that aired on numerous UK commercial stations from January 2003 to April 2006, typically Sundays from 4pm to 7pm, based on sales data, airplay, listener votes, and TV channel requests, alongside hit music playlists and artist spotlights.^[32]^[29]^[33] The show, produced by EMAP and broadcast on networks including Real Radio, emphasized interactive elements like listener votes and calls, helping Goodier transition from BBC chart presenting to commercial formats while competing with Radio 1's Official Chart.^[33] On Smooth Radio, Goodier presented the weekday mid-morning show following its launch in March 2007, showcasing his versatility in smooth jazz and adult contemporary genres, often incorporating listener feedback and exclusive track selections to build a relaxed listening experience across the network.^[25] At Greatest Hits Radio from 2019 to 2024, Goodier anchored mid-morning slots (10am-1pm weekdays) and covered breakfast and afternoon shifts, including weekend mornings from 2023, with features like "The Big 45" spotlighting classic tracks and holiday specials blending nostalgia with current events.^[34]^[31] His tenure included live event coverage, such as festival broadcasts, and collaborations for exclusive artist interviews, notably with ABBA's Björn Ulvaeus on potential projects and Dave Stewart discussing Eurythmics' legacy, underscoring his role in connecting listeners to music history.^[35] Goodier also adapted to digital radio expansion, contributing to the station's growth on DAB and online platforms while mentoring emerging talent through on-air guidance and production insights at his company, Wise Buddah.^[36]

Return to BBC and Recent Developments

Pick of the Pops Revival

Mark Goodier first guest-hosted episodes of Pick of the Pops on BBC Radio 2 in 2016, stepping in during Paul Gambaccini's break and amid Tony Blackburn's temporary suspension from the station.^[37] His appearances that year included countdowns of charts from various historical periods, such as 1968, 1979, and 1986, providing a nostalgic dive into past UK singles success.^[38] These guest slots marked an early return to BBC airwaves for Goodier, building on his prior experience hosting the Top 40 chart show on BBC Radio 1 from 1990 to 2002. He resumed guest hosting in 2018, presenting themed episodes like the charts from 1970 and 1987, as well as 1977 and 1988, where he introduced tracks by artists including John Lennon and the Pet Shop Boys.^[39]^[40] In April 2024, BBC Radio 2 announced Goodier as the permanent host of Pick of the Pops, effective from 6 July 2024, following the death of longtime presenter Steve Wright in February of that year.^[2]^[11] The appointment revived the program's classic format, with Goodier airing Sundays from 5-7pm, counting down two charts from different weeks across the past seven decades of UK music history.^[41] This structure emphasizes retro countdowns, blending archival chart data with contemporary commentary to highlight the evolution of popular music. Under Goodier's tenure, the show incorporated guest appearances and modern elements, such as listener-voted specials that engage the audience in curating themed charts. For instance, in October 2024, listeners selected their ultimate British group, crowning The Beatles at number one in a top 30 countdown presented by Goodier.^[42] These interactive features added a fresh twist to the heritage format, fostering community participation while preserving the countdown tradition. The program's impact has been notable in reinforcing Radio 2's focus on heritage music, drawing comparisons to Goodier's influential Radio 1 era for its authoritative chart narration. Specific episodes have highlighted seasonal and milestone themes, including a 2024 Christmas special on 25 December, where Goodier counted down festive charts from 1974, 1984, and 1994, featuring holiday hits across eras.^[43] In 2025, to mark the show's 70th anniversary—first broadcast on 4 October 1955—Goodier hosted celebratory broadcasts, such as countdowns of the best-selling singles from the 1970s, 2000s, and other decades, alongside a three-part documentary series exploring the program's history.^[44]^[45] These broadcasts underscored Pick of the Pops' enduring appeal, with Goodier collaborating on anniversary specials that revisited iconic moments from its legacy.

Other BBC Engagements

In early 2025, Mark Goodier served as a stand-in presenter for BBC Radio 2's Breakfast Show, covering the slot from late December 2024 following Zoe Ball's departure until 24 January, amid a transitional period before Scott Mills assumed the role on 27 January.^[46]^[47] During this time, he hosted episodes featuring guest interviews, such as discussions with Trevor Nelson about his upcoming Radio 2 show and Kim Wilde on her tour and album Closer.^[47]^[48] His appearances extended into occasional stand-ins for the Breakfast Show later in the year, including April and May 2025 under Scott Mills.^[49]^[50] Beyond the Breakfast Show, Goodier contributed to various guest spots and specials on Radio 2, focusing on music documentaries and tribute-style programs. He also hosted themed series like Mark Goodier's Most Played, including episodes on "Billion Streamers" from rock and pop history across six decades, aired in April 2025.^[51]^[52] Additional guest contributions included a special on Pet Shop Boys' hits in late summer 2024 and 1980s chart retrospectives as part of Radio 2 Loves the 80s in August 2025.^[53]^[54] Goodier participated in BBC events tied to music heritage, such as the festive edition of charts from 1974, 1984, and 1994 on Christmas Day 2024, and contributed to charity-linked programming through Radio 2's holiday broadcasts supporting broader BBC appeals.^[55]^[56] His success reviving Pick of the Pops in 2024 paved the way for these expanded roles, leveraging his expertise in chart history.^[57] As of November 2025, Goodier's ongoing contract with Radio 2 for Pick of the Pops includes options for renewal beyond its initial one-year term, positioning him as a veteran figure in UK radio with potential for further stand-in and special appearances.^[58] Audience reception to his engagements has been generally positive, with listeners praising his seamless style and music knowledge during Breakfast Show covers, though overall Radio 2 listenership dipped by nearly 500,000 in early 2025 amid schedule changes.^[46]^[59] Critics noted his smooth reintegration after a commercial radio hiatus, highlighting his ability to maintain the station's heritage appeal.^[60]

Personal Life

Family and Marriage

Mark Goodier married Jacqueline Goodier in April 1987, a period that aligned with his transition to a prominent role at BBC Radio 1, where he began hosting weekend programs shortly thereafter.^[13]^[9] The couple has three children—Hannah, born around 1992; Jamie, born around 1994; and Grace, born around 1999—all raised in the family's home in north London.^[61]^[8] Goodier's family provided essential stability amid his demanding broadcasting schedule during the 1990s, with Jacqueline influencing personal decisions such as prioritizing space for their growing household over his extensive record collection.^[61] In public interviews, he has highlighted the challenges of maintaining work-life balance in radio, crediting his family's presence for grounding him through high-profile career phases, including earnings from projects like the Now That's What I Call Music! compilations, which he humorously referred to as funding "school fees."^[61] The family occasionally accompanied him to industry events, and their shared interests subtly shaped his on-air music selections, reflecting a household immersed in contemporary sounds.^[8] During his recovery from a stroke in 2016, Goodier credited Jacqueline and his daughter Grace with providing critical early support that aided his return to broadcasting.^[62]

Health Challenges

In November 2016, Mark Goodier, then aged 55 and an occasional presenter on BBC Radio 2, suffered a stroke at his home in north London, resulting in immediate hospitalization and a temporary hiatus from broadcasting.^[4]^[63] His wife and daughter recognized the symptoms—facial drooping, inability to speak or swallow—and promptly called emergency services, applying the FAST test (Face, Arms, Speech, Time) that enabled thrombolysis treatment within 90 minutes, significantly aiding his survival and recovery prospects.^[5]^[62] This rapid response was credited by Goodier himself as life-saving, as two out of three stroke victims do not receive such timely intervention.^[5] Goodier's recovery involved intensive rehabilitation following the stroke, which had caused slurred speech and physical weakness. However, in January 2017, as he was beginning to resume broadcasting, he suffered a second stroke, further delaying his full return to work until later that year.^[64]^[28] By February 2017, he described himself as slowly returning to a normal pace of work, though he noted lingering effects that required ongoing adjustments.^[5] Family support played a key role in his rehabilitation process.^[62] In the years following, Goodier has openly discussed the long-term impacts of his strokes, emphasizing stroke awareness particularly for middle-aged men, and has become an advocate through collaborations with organizations like the Stroke Association and NHS England.^[65]^[66] He launched the "Stroke Stories" podcast in 2018 to share survivor experiences and highlight post-stroke resources, drawing from his own challenges in accessing support after hospital discharge.^[67] Goodier has voiced Act FAST campaign videos, underscoring the importance of immediate action to minimize damage.^[68] The incident drew public support, including coverage and well-wishes from BBC outlets, where colleagues noted his good progress and luck in survival.^[4]^[69] Goodier's transparency about his experience has contributed to broader stroke education efforts.^[70]
