Timeline
Mark Goodier (born 9 June 1961) is a British radio disc jockey best known for his time on BBC Radio 1 between 1987 and 2002.
Afterwards he went on to join the local stations Radio Forth and Radio Tay at the age of 19 taking over the Radio Tay Breakfast Beat from Gerry Quinn After progressing through several jobs at stations in Scotland including Radio Clyde in Glasgow and at Metro Radio in the North East of England, he joined BBC Radio 1 in 1987, beginning a 15-year stint with the station, beginning with a two-hour Saturday night show.
Goodier co-presented Radio 1's Weekend Breakfast Show with Liz Kershaw and Sybil Ruscoe (Kershaw's stand-in), and he quickly progressed to a drivetime slot.
Goodier has also presented shows on BBC Radio 2, Classic FM, Smooth Radio and Real Radio, and appeared on BBC television as a recurring presenter of Top of the Pops between 1988 and 1996.
On 17 January 2023, Goodier announced that he will be replaced on weekday mornings by Ken Bruce, who joined the station from BBC Radio 2.
Bruce announced his departure from Radio 2 on the same day.
Goodier moved to weekend mornings in April, replacing Pat Sharp who left the station.
Goodier returned to the weekday mid-morning slot on 7 August 2023 when Bruce went on holiday.
Goodier was born in Salisbury, Southern Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe).
His family moved to Llanfairfechan, Wales shortly after he was born, eventually settling in Edinburgh, Scotland, when he was 8 years old.
He was educated at George Heriot's School, in Edinburgh.
He became a mobile DJ in Edinburgh and then joined a local Free Radio Station (Telstar) where his radio career began.
He had two spells presenting the station's Top 40 singles chart, from 1990 to 1992 and from 1995 until 2002.
He created The Evening Session and hosted it between 1990 and 1993.
During this period, he also presented the UK Top 40 chart countdown on Sunday evenings and was also an established host on Top of the Pops, along with several of his BBC Radio 1 colleagues.
Bands and artists recorded sessions for Goodier at the BBC's Maida Vale Studios, some of which were commercially released.
In 1992, Nirvana's "odds-and-sods" release, Incesticide, featured several songs recorded for Goodier's BBC show.
The album reached the top 40 on both sides of the Atlantic and achieved Platinum status in America.
In addition, he is a voiceover artist for television adverts which promote new compact disc-formatted albums, in particular the Now That's What I Call Music! UK series, of which he has been "the voice" since Now 21 in early 1992.
He also had a stint on Radio 1 Breakfast during 1993.
He now presents the weekend mid-morning show between 10am and 1pm on Greatest Hits Radio.
Wright said that he would not do so immediately, and Bannister asked Goodier to host for four months in late 1993.
He then shifted to afternoons, then back to his old drivetime slot in 1995.
In the same year, he returned to the chart show after Bruno Brookes left the station.
In 1997, Goodier took on a Saturday and Sunday morning slot after quitting daily radio to establish his production company, WiseBuddah.
In addition to this, from 2001 Goodier also stood in for presenters on BBC Radio 2 when taking their holiday.
After permanently leaving BBC Radio 1, Goodier presented the EMAP-produced Smash Hits Chart, which competed with Radio 1's official chart and Hit40UK.
He spent his final two years at Radio 1 only presenting the Top 40 show, before leaving the station entirely in 2002 owing to falling audiences and BBC bosses considering him "too old for the job."
The Smash Hits Chart finished in March 2006, when EMAP also began to broadcast the Hit40UK chart show across their Big City Network of stations.
He also presented the Classical Chart for Classic FM.
On 1 April 2006, his new Real Top 40 shows began on the Real Radio network in Scotland, Wales and Yorkshire.
Every show reflected sales and airplay for that area.
In March 2007, Goodier joined the newly relaunched Smooth Radio in London, as presenter of the weekday mid-morning show from 10 am to 1 pm, his first daily show in a decade, and subsequently this show was networked to other Smooth stations and then on the national Smooth service.
A further session recording was "Something in the Way", released on the 2011 edition of Nevermind.
He left the station in December 2012 to focus on running his Wisebuddah company.
Goodier again became a frequent stand-in on BBC Radio 2 when regular presenters were on leave.
From 27 February to 2 July 2016 he presented Pick of the Pops on a temporary basis following the dismissal of Tony Blackburn, before Paul Gambaccini took over as the permanent presenter.
Goodier's final show was broadcast on 17 November that year, which also marked the 50th anniversary of the UK Singles Chart.
