Mark Mardell

Mark Mardell is one of six presenters of the 'Movers and Shakers' podcast, about living with Parkinson's. Although officially retired he says it doesn't feel like it as 'Moving and Shaking' takes up satisfying large amounts of his time as does reporting on assisted dying in his blog for Prospect Magazine 'a good death. Before he retired, he had been at the forefront of reporting and analysing major world events on TV and radio for 25 years, for the BBC.

His last job was presenting the 'world this weekend' and the 'world at one' on BBC radio four. Before that he was BBC's North America editor, the BBC's first Europe editor and covered Westminster politics in a number of guises including political editor of Newsnight and the BBC's chief political correspondent.
