Julian Simmons is the legendary UTV Continuity Presenter known for his sharp-tongued transitions between TV shows like Coronation Street and Emmerdale.   Being fascinated with planes and aircraft as a child, Julian became a travel agent before landing his dream job with Air Canada, a position that has taken him all over the world and back again.   After being "discovered by a guy in Holywood...
