More about Rick

Heart Drivetime is presented by Rick Edwards, it's a great mix of fantastic music with all the regular traffic and travel news that helps you all get home each evening.

We asked him to tell us what brought him to Devon and what are some of his likes and dislikes.

"After spending the formative years of my life in Essex I could not resist the call of the Westcountry and my family roots and found myself working in Torquay. I started working here four and a half years ago working on the Breakfast Show. After deciding I needed my morning sleep, I moved on to the daytime line-up.

We have also had some great things to do...one of the best has to be going on stage at Powderham castle with Busted - very cool".
