David Jacobs (broadcaster)

David Lewis Jacobs, CBE (19 May 1926 – 2 September 2013) was a British broadcaster perhaps best known as presenter of the BBC Television 1960s peak-time show ''Juke Box Jury'', and as chairman of the long-running BBC Radio 4 topical forum ''Any Questions?'' Earlier radio work included small acting parts: over the years he played himself or presenter characters in film, television and radio productions. Jacobs finally stepped down as a BBC Radio 2 presenter shortly before his death, his career having spanned more than 65 years.
==Early life and career==
Jacobs was born to a Jewish family, the youngest of three sons〔(Obituary: David Jacobs ), telegraph.co.uk, 3 September 2013〕 of Jeanette and David Jacobs senior,〔Dennis Barker (Obituary: David Jacobs ), ''The Guardian'', 3 September 2013〕 in Streatham Hill, London,〔Spencer Leigh ("Obituary: David Jacobs, much-loved broadcaster whose BBC career lasted more than 60 years" ), ''The Independent'', 3 September 2013〕 and educated at Belmont College and Strand School.〔 In his early years the family was affluent, but his father, a Covent Garden fruit importer, was bankrupted in 1939 after suffering ill-health for a decade, and the family soon lost their home.〔 This forced his youngest son to leave school at 14, and Jacobs took up various short-term jobs, before he served in the Royal Navy from 1944 to 1947, and performed on the popular BBC General Forces Programme ''Navy Mixture'' in 1944. He became an announcer with the British Forces Broadcasting Service and was chief announcer on Radio SEAC in Ceylon (1945–47). Jacobs was later assistant station director.
A BBC staff announcer in the early 1950s, his voice intoned the title for many of the 53 episodes of the space adventure series ''Journey Into Space''. He played 22 parts in the series.〔Paul Donovan. ''The Radio Companion'', London: HarperCollins, 1991, p141, ISBN 0-246-13648-0〕 He also broadcast on Radio Luxembourg. He had, between 1957 and 1961, established the chart show format of the Light Programme's ''Pick of the Pops'', to which he briefly returned in 1962. Between 1957 and 1966, he presented ''A Song for Europe'' and provided the UK commentary at Eurovision Song Contests.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 work=IMDB )
Jacobs presented ''Juke Box Jury'' on BBC television between 1959 and 1967. This was a weekly show in which a guest panel reviewed newly released pop records and forecast whether each would become a "hit" or a "miss". By 1962 the programme attracted 12 million viewers weekly on Saturday nights.〔Mundy, John: "Popular music on screen: from the Hollywood musical to music video" (Manchester University Press, 1999) ISBN 0-7190-4029-9, pp.204-5〕 He was one of the four original presenters of ''Top of the Pops'' when it began in 1964, but remained a presenter of the programme for only its first two years. "I became too square for the pop scene," he once commented.〔
In 1963 he published an autobiography, 'Jacobs' Ladder'.
