Magi Dodd was a Welsh radio presenter and producer, best known for her work at BBC Radio Cymru.[1]
As a presenter, Dodd was a familiar voice on Radio Cymru's nightly youth strand, C2, initially as a contributor and a voiceover, before becoming one of its main presenters, hosting the flagship 8-10pm slot on weeknights.[2] She was regularly heard presenting alongside former Big Brother contestant Glyn Wise.
Dodd went onto host her own hour-long nightly show, Dodd Com,[3] streamed exclusively on the C2 website with a midnight repeat on Radio Cymru.
In later years, Dodd concentrated her work on producing shows for the Welsh language radio network, such as Bore Cothi, the Radio Cymru 2 breakfast show and the award-winning Llais y Maes, as part of live coverage of the National Eisteddfod.[4]
Dodd continued to co-present Radio Cymru's annual pop quiz for Welsh-medium schools and led a series of radio production workshops for students[5] as part of the station's schools tours.[6] She also provided radio commentary for the Cân i Gymru song contest.
