Matthew began his career working for a local newspaper after graduating from Exeter University with a degree in English and Drama.  By the age of 26, Matthew was working at The Sun’s ‘Bizarre’ showbiz desk. Two years later, he left The Sun to help develop a new programme for SKY with Richard Littlejohn.  It was here that Matthew gained his first television role.

Once the show finished a year later, Fleet Street offered Matthew a three-month stint on the Today newspaper.

He has also interviewed Cher, Madonna, Elizabeth Taylor, Elton John and Gwyneth Paltrow, just to name a few and worked for GMTV as the show’s TV critic.
