Who is Richard Marson?

Richard Marson is an English writer, television producer and director, best known as a former editor in chief of the BBC's children's television programme Blue Peter. In September 2007, Marson was sacked from his post for making an editorial decision on the naming of the new Blue Peter cat, thus overriding the results of online vote on the programme in January 2006. Despite this, he remains the programme's "unofficial historian".

Marson has directed and produced a number of documentaries, including Children's TV on Trial, Upstairs Downstairs Remembered, and Tales of Television Centre.
