{{about|the English television journalist|the German footballer|Tim Sebastian (footballer)}}{{Use British English|date=May 2015}}Tim Sebastian (born 13 March 1952, London, England) is a television journalist and novelist. He is the moderator of Conflict Zone[1] and The New Arab Debates,[2] broadcast on Deutsche Welle. He previously worked for the BBC, where he hosted The Doha Debates[3] and was the first presenter of HARDtalk.[4] He also presented Bloomberg TV's The Outsider, an India-focused debating programme.[5][6]

He won the BAFTA (British Academy of Film and Television Arts) Richard Dimbleby award in 1981[7] and Britain's prestigious Royal Television Society Interviewer of the Year award in 2000 and 2001.[8]

Education

Sebastian was educated at Westminster School, a fee-paying independent school in Central London. He holds a BA Honours degree in Modern Languages from New College, Oxford University, and speaks both German and Russian.[8]

He has a Diploma in Journalism Studies from Cardiff University, graduating in 1974.

Journalist

Sebastian began his journalism career at Reuters in 1974, moving to the BBC as foreign correspondent in Warsaw in 1979.[9] He became BBC's Europe correspondent in 1982, for Moscow in 1984 (until his expulsion from the USSR in 1985[9]) and then for Washington from 1986 to 1989.[10]

Sebastian has worked for The Mail on Sunday, and has contributed to The Sunday Times.

Interviewer

Memorable Hard Talk interviews[11] with world leaders included US Presidents Bill Clinton [12]][13], Donald Trump[14]] and Jimmy Carter,[15] Archbishop Desmond Tutu,[16] Singapore’s first Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew,[17] and the last leader of the Soviet Union Mikhail Gorbachev.[18] He now hosts Conflict Zone, a one-on-one interview show on Deutsche Welle's international English-language channel.

In March 2016, he interviewed the leader of the German party AfD, Frauke Petry.[19]

Debate moderator

Sebastian is a frequent moderator of major conferences, seminars and forums across the globe.

He was the Chairman of The Doha Debates, a Qatar Foundation programme that was broadcast monthly on BBC World News where it was the highest-rated weekend programme. The Debates were founded by Sebastian in 2004 and their fifth series began in September 2008.

Following the political and social unrest in Egypt and Tunisia in early 2011, Tim Sebastian founded The New Arab Debates,[20] which have been held in Egypt, Tunisia and Jordan and were broadcast on Deutsche Welle English[21] as well as regional television channels. The debates are also held in Arabic and hosted by Egyptian TV presenter Mai El Sherbiny.
