Guy Michelmore

Guy Michelmore

Guy Michelmore is a British composer and television news presenter.

Education

Michelmore was educated at the independent St John's School in Leatherhead, Surrey.

News presenter

Michelmore joined the BBC programme "Newsroom South East" in 1993. Guy left the programme to be replaced by Tim Ewart from ITN. His mother was Jean Metcalfe the BBC presenter of Two Way Family Favourites and Woman's Hour. His father is Cliff Michelmore, television presenter and producer, best known for the BBC television programme "Tonight". Cliff once interviewed himself, and asked whether either his son or daughter had shown any interest in television - Cliff answered by saying that ten year-old Guy was "at that point where he is fascinated and interested in all things...even his father's job!"

He famously spilt his drink all over himself and his desk when a colleague showed him some photo (see discussion) before going into a live link on "Newsroom South East" shown on BBC's Auntie Bloomers (Out-Takes show). [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blooper]

Composer

After leaving the BBC, Michelmore continued his career as a composer for television and films. He won the award for Best Music at the International Wildlife Film Festival for "Tale of the Tides", nominated for a Wildscreen Award for "Mzima: Haunt of the River Horse" and "Queen of Trees". He also won the Slate Award for Best Score for the UK feature film “Fly Fishing”. He has more recently scored four films for Marvel and Lionsgate including Iron Man, Ultimate Avengers and Dr Strange as well as the EMMY Award winning series Tutenstein and Growing Up Creepie.
