Dougie Vipond is one of the busiest and most versatile broadcasters in the country. For the past eleven years he has hosted BBC Scotland’s sport output on Sportscene, covering a vast range of events including football’s Scottish Cup Final, World Championship Mountain Biking, European Curling, Three Day Eventing, World Bowls and Rugby Internationals.

He can also be seen presenting Scotland’s nightly sports news on Reporting Scotland.

Dougie spent four years reporting on BBC’s Holiday strand and his love of the outdoors has led to him presenting BBC Scotland’s The Adventure Show, an extreme sport series in which he reports from and takes part in a variety of adventure sports and competitions. In 2009, he replaced Nick Nairn as presenter of BBC Scotland’s award winning rural affairs series, Landward.

In 2010 Dougie appeared in the documentary Up A Long Creek, in which he and the comedian Fred MacAulay kayaked the length of the Caledonian Canal for Sport Relief. Two years later he really pushed the boat out for Sport Relief captaining a Scottish Team of former Olympians and Rugby Internationalists, running, cycling, sailing and rowing round the UK.

In 2011 he was presented with a Scottish BAFTA in the Live Event Coverage category for The Great Climb, the world’s first high definition broadcast of live climbing. The programme was seen simultaneously across the UK on BBC 2 and the BBC HD Channel and streamed worldwide on the web.

In a past life, Dougie was the founder member and drummer with the rock band Deacon Blue. The band celebrated 25 years since their debut album, Raintown, in 2012. A brand new record, The Hipsters, was released and went straight into the top twenty of the UK Album charts.
