Real Life Boxing #20 - Frank Gilfeather Real Life Boxing

In this episode we have the honour of speaking to the legendary Frank Gilfeather.

Frank Gilfeather (born 30 December 1945, Lochee, Dundee, Scotland) is a Scottish journalist and
broadcaster. Gilfeather, a former Scottish amateur boxing champion from Dundee, moved to Aberdeen in April 1969 and began work on the Press & Journal and the Evening Express as a general news reporter. Later, when personnel was allocated to each paper, he was a news reporter on the P&J for some years before moving to the evening newspaper's sports desk as chief sportswriter and deputy sports editor.

His broadcasting career began in 1980 with the launch of the Grampian Television (now STV North) regional news programme, North Tonight. Gilfeather joined the programme as a sports correspondent although he would later also work on news coverage. As well as reporting for North Tonight, Gilfeather fronted the North Tonight spin-off Summer at Six and popular local
quiz show Top Club which ran for nine years. He also
worked on general election coverage for ITN and has been featured in out-takes on LWT's It'll be Alright on the Night.

Gilfeather also fronted STV and Grampian TV's shinty highlights coverage between the
mid-1980s and early-1990s, for which the shinty matches were simiculast on both channels throughout this time.
