Little is known of Rob Varmint’s early history. Allegedly the illegitimate love child of Noddy Holder and Kylie Minogue, most people prefer to believe that he was spontaneously created at or around the same time that 10radio came into existence. Several years later, he's still hanging around the studio begging for small change...

As the self appointed 'Guardian of Decent Music', Rob’s musical tastes are broad and eclectic, covering most genres except rap with a silent 'c'. When not broadcasting, Rob’s interests include eating, macrame, shove ha’penny and gurning, and he can often be seen at John Otway gigs shouting 'Who’s a prat?'.
