At Key 103 Mark's late-morning show has some of the most popular features in the station. has everyone locked in, as does the All Time Key Top Ten at Ten Top Three and he also keeps everyone in Manchester up to the minute with the weekly Pepsi Chart recap.  The Real Life Stories that features daily lets us see Mark's compassionate nature that so easily endears himself to all our listeners.

He admires DJs Steve Wright, Bruno Brookes, Richard Allinson and Phil Upton.  He was born in Kent but soon saw the light and moved up North.

Mark Benson is no stranger to radio.  He began his career working in a hospital radio station.  He moved to Radio Topshop, then to Invicta FM, SGR FM, Power FM, BRM, Capital FM...and finally to Key 103, where he intends to stay!

Being a Gemini he is a keen sportsman and this is reflected in his dream car - the Ferrari 355!  He also enjoys a good Indian meal, washed down with a cold Becks.

But where does his heart lie?  Apparently with Diane Youdale, also known as 'Jet' from Gladiators, as well as the Spice Girls!
