About Mark
Mark is a multi award winning investigative reporter and has amongst his awards, two Royal Television Society, a Broadcasting Press Guild and an International Peabody. He is also BAFTA nominated.
He is a former police detective and a criminologist who has far-reaching experience of working at the centre of high profile investigations and undertaking major reviews. Mark has over the last decade reported on nearly all the biggest crime stories including: Oscar Pistorius, The Alps murders, Tia Sharp murder, Claudia Lawrence murder, the murder of Alice Gross and the disappearance of Madeleine McCann.
One of Mark’s greatest skills is his ability to get exclusive access and interviews with key people related to the cases.
It was Mark’s programme in 2012 for ITV’s Exposure that finally exposed Jimmy Savile as one of the nations worst ever paedophiles. As a direct result of Mark’s investigation, the Metropolitan police set up Operation Yewtree which led to the arrest of high profile celebrities Rolf Harris and Max Clifford.
In 2015 Mark beat the world’s media to gain exclusive access to Oscar Pistorius and his programme ‘Oscar Pistorius: The Interview’ was broadcast on ITV 24th June 2016 and the show has subsequently been broadcast around the world.
In 2016 after a year long investigation Mark was given his own prime time ITV crime show – The Investigator. His first series reviewed the murder of Carole Packman who went missing in 1985, and whilst her husband is in jail for her murder, her body has never been found. As a direct result of this series and the NEW evidence Mark found, Dorset police have now re-opened the case. The Investigator is currently being shown worldwide on Netflix.
In February 2016 Mark was given his own crime strand on ITV’s This Morning – ‘Unsolved’ which looked at undetected crime. His first three cases were the murders of Jill Dando and Claudia Lawrence and the disappearance of the Malaysian flight MH370.
2017 and the first part of 2018 was taken with Mark making Series 2 of his prime time ITV crime series The Investigator which broadcast in April 2018.
Mark is currently working on a number of different murder re-investigations which are closely guarded at this stage, more information will be released in late 2019.

On the 27th June 2019 Mark’s book, Hunting Killers, was released. Published by Transworld.
In September 2020 following the arrest of Charles and Doris Clark on suspicion of the murder of their 23 years old son Steven, who disappeared in December 1992, Mark was given exclusive access to follow the family for an ITV TV documentary whist they were under police investigation.
