Mark Wallington (born 1953 Swanage) is an author and broadcaster, perhaps most famous for his humorous "Boogie" travelogues, both memorably serialised on BBC Radio Four. After leaving school, Wallington worked as a jobbing gardener before embarking on a career as a journalist and scriptwriter, his first credit being for Not the Nine O'Clock News. In addition to his radio successes he has also written many works for television. His latest commission is a dramatisation of Gervase Phinn’s Over Hill and Dale.
