He has presented "Children in Need" and even made a guest appearance on the 2005 Christmas episode of "Doctor Who."

Mohammad and Owen Money took calls from football and rugby fans at 18:00, now replaced by BBC Radio Five Live's 6-0-6. Mohammad and Money now team up on the "Extra Time Quiz," a spin-off from the phone-in^[4].
