In the hit BBC podcast Our Man in the Middle East Jeremy presented a personal history of the Middle East. Over 25 episodes he reflected on the present and the past of the Middle East, after reporting from the region for more than a quarter of a century.

A seasoned war correspondent, Jeremy Bowen provides audiences with riveting anecdotes from a life reporting on the front line at some of the most fraught conflicts of the past twenty years. He has witnessed endless wars between individuals, religious groups and full-sized states, jostling for military, political and economic power.

He has interviewed dictators, fanatics and fundamentalists as well as the ordinary people caught up in their dangerous games.

Jeremy has covered hostilities from over 70 countries ranging from El Salvador, Somalia to the West Bank and his current role as the BBC’s Middle East Editor enables him to cast a welcome light onto one of the most complex areas of the world.

Jeremy is a well known bowel cancer sufferer and  is raising the profile of a campaign by Bowel Cancer UK for an optimal bowel cancer screening programme, in which he relates to his own diagnosis and treatment.
