Biography

Julian Rush, the programme's science correspondent, joined Channel 4 News from the BBC, and has been at the forefront of some of the programme's major investigative achievements.

He exclusively revealed that the government had plagiarised its Iraq Dossier from the work of a PhD student and he won the prestigious RTS Home News Awards in two consecutive years for his investigative reporting of the causes of the Paddington and Hatfield rail crashes.

He was the first TV reporter to reveal that the products of American GM crops were to be imported into Britain. With one of the widest briefs on the programme, covering science and environment with his colleagues Tom Clarke and Neil MacDonald, Julian also manages to wear the Defence hat when required.

He has spent his career in broadcasting, in radio and television at both the BBC and in commercial sectors. He still wants to be the first TV reporter to broadcast from space.
