Geraint Wyn Pickard

Geraint Wyn Pickard

When not announcing, Geraint dreams of pop stardom.

Geraint is a newsreader and announcer for both Radio Wales and Radio Cymru. He was brought up in Tonteg near Pontypridd and now lives in Cardiff.

Having studied drama at Aberystwyth and Oxford, Geraint joined BBC Wales as an announcer and newsreader for Radio Cymru immediately after graduating in 1996. He joined the Radio Wales team of announcers in 1998 and still works for both networks.

Among Geraint's interests are theatre and film, and on a less cultured note so are trashy, cult tv shows.

His other main passion is music and having finally accepted he will never be a pop star, Geraint can quite happily spend hours tinkering away on his synthesiser, dreaming about what could have been!
