ALISON BOSHOFF: Two wives, many lovers and an affair with a prostitute called Mel, meet Diddy David Hamilton, the unlikeliest of ladies' men


Beloved broadcaster David Hamilton - one of the great voices of BBC Radio 1 and Radio 2, and a successful TV presenter for Thames TV and others - has a very amiable reputation.

However, perhaps we will think a little differently about him after his autobiography, David Hamilton's Long And Winding Road, is published next week as it reveals the jaw-dropping, untold inside story of his life… as a ladies' man. Hamilton, twice married, tells of a love affair with a prostitute, casual bunk-ups with housewives on the road and the dope-fuelled dressing-room sex which shocked This Is Your Life star Eamonn Andrews who walked in on it. By this time he was voted one of TV's 'biggest turn-ons' behind Magnum star Tom Selleck, and took advantage of the female interest when he was on the road with the variety show Up For The Cup, screened against The Generation Game in 1980.
