David Dunseith
David Dunseith is a veteran journalist and broadcaster with BBC Northern Ireland. His career has spanned the troubles covering the turbulent and tragic events of recent years from the Falls Curfew in 1970 to the Omagh atrocity in 1998. And he's reported on all the political initiatives from Sunningdale to the Good Friday Agreement.
He has been presenting BBC Radio Ulster's Talk Back since 1989 but his association with the programme goes back even further than that. When it first went on the air in 1987, he was a weekly contributor with a unique ability to read from a script written on various pieces of scrap paper - a talent he has little opportunity to demonstrate in this computer age.
There's little doubt that David has one of the toughest jobs in broadcasting. Sitting in the Talk Back hot seat means he has to tackle difficult politicians and take on members of the public as well. (Source: BBC Northern Ireland)
