Jonny Dymond

Jonny Dymond reporter, correspondent, speaker and BBC Royal Correspondent.

Jonny’s career in television began as a researcher and producer at the BBC studios in Millbank, Westminster. He moved on to work on budget and election programmes and on the weekday current affairs news flagship, Newsnight. Jonny was appointed as a reporter at Westminster for the World Service and as a BBC Washington correspondent in 2000, reporting on two United States Presidential elections. Jonny covered the 9/11 terrorist attacks on the Twin Towers for the BBC in New York.

Following his role as Istanbul reporter covering Turkey and the Middle East in 2001 he went on to spend five years in Brussels as BBC Europe Correspondent. As 2021 becomes yet another big year for news in the British Royal Family Jonny has the privilege of being BBC Royal Correspondent – he wrote and reported extensively in the run-up to the wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle. With the re-emergence of the controversy over the Martin Bashir interview with Princess Diana, Jonny had the task of reporting and commenting on the Royal Family’s relationship with the BBC itself writing on 21 May 2021 that ‘it’s hard to overstate the strength of feeling expressed by William’. And now Jonny is reporting on the day to day developments following the publication of Spare by the Duke of Sussex.

In less stormy waters Jonny is also a presenter on BBC Radio 4’s Sunday morning news magazine show Broadcasting House and he’s on BBC World Service as a political reporter. As a live speaker Jonny is superbly cogent and is especially insightful on the role of the post-Brexit United Kingdom in the world today and of the future of the role of Brand Britain. Recently Jonny has researched and created ten podcast episodes of Putin in which he tells the extraordinary story of the life of Vladimir Putin life with the help of guests who have studied, watched, and dealt close-up with the man.
