He then became a songwriter, record producer with his international No.1 hit I Wanna Give You Devotion by Nomad, then a chat show host with his live BBC show Damon Rochefort Tonight. Turning to television writing, he has written for Birds of a Feather, Boyz R Us and Britannia High as well as contributing 314 episodes of Coronation Street since 2004.
