Colin appears in The Identity Parade round of the show, hosted by Mark Lamarr, during which the audience is shown clips of famous performers anything between 10 and 30 years ago.

He was also singularly responsible for encouraging Leisuretec to invest in a large stockholding of both the JBL and dbx product ranges, resulting in significant increases of turnover of both l

Geary explained the reasoning behind the new venture: "Having studied the success of commission-based manufacturers’ representatives in the United States, I believe that with our integrated approach - the right team and the right lines - our model will be very successful in the UK. The salaries, cars, overnight stays, pensions and all the other associated costs make a single line sales team very expensive to maintain. Out-sourcing sales to Gearline Marketing cuts the supply channel costs for manufacturers and distrib

NEAL, the security side of the Group’s business continues to strengthen.
