Who is Mark Goodier? Meet Steve Wright’s Replacement on Radio 2’s Pick Of The Pops

Mark Goodier is a seasoned British radio DJ renowned for his extensive career on BBC Radio 1.

From 1987 to 2002, he graced the station’s frequencies, notably steering the ship for the Top 40 singles chart not once, but twice.

Additionally, his tenure included a stint as the captain of the popular Radio 1 Breakfast show in 1993.

But Goodier’s influence transcends Radio 1; since departing, he’s ventured into hosting gigs across various stations like BBC Radio 2, Classic FM, Smooth Radio, and presently, Greatest Hits Radio.

He’s also made notable appearances on the iconic “Top of the Pops” music program on BBC television.

Now, breaking news heralds his return to BBC Radio 2, where he’s set to reclaim the Saturday lunchtime slot for the revered “Pick of the Pops” show.

This development follows the passing of Steve Wright, who briefly held the position after Paul Gambaccini.

Interestingly, this isn’t Goodier’s first time at the helm; he previously led the same show in 2016.
