‘Get up, you massive horse!’ How TV’s Dan Walker keeps going in faith and work

Dan Walker

Dan Walker’s Twitter feed describes him succinctly – and conveniently, for the purposes of this article – as ‘that bloke off BBC Breakfast, Football Focus and The NFL Show. Also author of Remarkable People’ which, as it happens, is the reason for our interview.

He is, moreover, an evangelical Christian who wears his faith with a light and winsome touch.

In person, Walker is as boyish, blokey and chipper as on screen. I start with a zinger of a difficult question, just to get it out the way.
