Over the past few years, Alexander has appeared in various programmes on both terrestrial and satellite TV. At present, he is featured on a show called BRAZEN; an eclectic mix of professionally shot reality TV, and more amateur-style footage, along with animated satire and parody. The animations featured in the show are aimed at deriding reality TV, whilst the live-action footage purports to promote the concept. Another show, called Rubbernecker features him as the narrator/host. Alexander is well known for his work with Men and Motors, a digital channel in the UK operated byITV plc, having appeared in over 150 shows on their channel in the last 5 years. His first appearance was on his own creation, a reality clubbing show called UK Uncovered in which he and other presenters interviewed everyday people in the environment or nightclubs. This simple formula was relatively successful, which resulted in a further three more series of the same show, culminating recently with a version incorporating Nuts magazines' search for a new model, listed as "UK Uncovered vs The Nuts Babe Search". This latest incarnation mirrors a technique first used in BRAZEN, specifically where the show's voiceover is done by a computer-generated personality but according to feedback found in various sources, this unique approach is not always popular with viewers. He also hosted a current affairs show for a younger audience on ITV1, called Late Attitude. He has also produced several other series, such as The Steam Room, Bak2Skool, and he appeared in a mockumentaryTV series entitled The Randomball Run.
Other work
Alexander worked on a low-budget digital project between 1997 and 2000, which was to be distributed internationally but the deal was held up by complications, at which point he left the otherwise-completed project to pursue his TV ambitions. He was director of photography, film editor and assistant producer on the feature length film, at the time titled Fluffy Little Bunnies – later re-titled Bad Day which went on to win Best of the Fest at ReelHeArt International Film Festival. Alexander was also featured heavily in a documentary on Discovery Health, UK called Who's the Daddy, a one-hour film following people trying to track down their biological fathers, which endured some national criticism for the way paternity tests were handled.
Personal life
He is related to J B Priestley, who is his mother's great uncle and by strange coincidence there is a statue of him outside the National Media Museum where Alexander studied media.
