He helped launch the late night current affairs programme Newsnight on BBC2, where he was both presenter and economic specialist. He was also involved in launching In Business on Radio 4. His removal from the Today programme in 1996 was greeted with dismay from its listeners and allegations of ageism were levied at the BBC. Later he presented BBC Radio 4's World at One. Bilingual in French and English, and competent in Italian, he also contributed to French and French-Canadian television. Hobday died on 18 January 2020. His brother John Hobday, who predeceased him, took the part of the first police constable in Ambridge in BBC Radio 4's The Archers. (en)
