Early life

Kelly, then known as Spencer Bignell, grew up in Bishopstoke, near Eastleigh in Hampshire, and attended Wyvern Secondary School in neighbouring Fair Oak, then Barton Peveril College in Eastleigh.[citation needed] He obtained a double first in Computer Science[1] from Churchill College, Cambridge.[2]

Career

It was as a student that Kelly first became involved in broadcasting, initially at Radio Glen at Southampton University, and he went on to run Cambridge University Radio.[citation needed] After graduating, he got a job as a traffic presenter - going by the name of "Commander Kelly in the Flying Eye" on the local radio station for Portsmouth and Southampton, Ocean FM.[citation needed] He later became the station's breakfast show host, a position he held for six years.

He joined the BBC in January 2003 as one of five iPresenters (interactive presenters).[citation needed] The team pioneered new forms of interactive broadcasting, using the web, digital television and digital radio.[citation needed] This included interactive LiveChats, which were live interviews with celebrities, streamed across the web, in which the audience had the opportunity to ask live questions to the guests. He also began reporting for BBC World's Click Online show for two and a half years and appeared on Five's The Gadget Show. He became the presenter of the renamed Click series in January 2006, taking over from Stephen Cole.[citation needed]

He was awarded an Honorary Doctorate of Technology by Coventry University.[1] He is represented by the agency Curtis Brown.[3]
