Peter Robins is a writer and former journalist and broadcaster.
He was employed locally by a Rhodesian radio station in the Congo from 1959. He continued as a broadcaster in Central Africa in Rhodesia and in the Zambian copper belt up to 1964. In 1960, he met Robin Day who asked him to freelance as a journalist for the BBC. As a result, he was recruited in 1964 as a journalist to the BBC Radio at Portland Place, London. He remained with the BBC until his retirement in 1987, with a 4-year break as a senior journalist at London Broadcasting Company. Peter now lives in Croydon and has a close friend, Steve.
