Dave Lee Travis carved out quite a time presenting 'Top Of The Pops' during the 70s and early 80s - and during this period, matching his hobby of photography, he was voted the 'National Hairdressing Federation's' 'Head Of The Year' in 1980 and also, with his penchant for smoking, 'Pipe-man Of The Year' in 1982.
Dave is still very much interested in art - his other interests are archery and motor racing including drag racing - in 1974 he became the first DJ to winn his class outright at a major international drag racing meeting.
Dave was probably the presenter who revolted the most when, Radio 1 was arguably massacred by Matthew Bannister into the shadow of it's former self it is today.

Dave was already a committed fan of the Anderson series.
In the end, with Dave's radio commitments increasing, he had less and less time to devote to UFO 1 and finally sold it to an enthusiast from Birmingham.

 Smashie and Nicey - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Mike Smash and Dave Nice were two characters played by Paul Whitehouse and Harry Enfield respectively in the latter's early 1990s TV sketch show Harry Enfield's Television Programme.
Australian-accented aging rocker Dave Nice was an obvious parody of the then Radio 1 Rock Show presenter Alan Freeman (whose radio persona deliberately bordered on self-parody anyway), with elements of Dave Lee Travis.
Mike Smash was loosely based on Tony Blackburn, though he bore more physical resemblance to Mike Read, and Whitehouse's vocalisation had a certain similarity to pop star Cliff Richard.
