As programme director, he worked under the station's controller, Norman Collins, to establish the popularity of the fledgling channel, with one of the major events covered during this time being the 1948 Summer Olympics, broadcast live by the BBC from Wembley Stadium in London.
The second famous programme Collins initiated was the incredibly long-lived Woman's Hour, first broadcast in 1946 and still running every weekday on BBC Radio 4.
