Matthew Kelly was the first ever Children's ITV presenter who started the weekday afternoon strand in January 1983. He would travel between programmes in his "rocket ship" before the concept was retired a few months later. He also presented lineups from 11th December 1984 introducing two blocks of Thomas the Tank Engine and Friends from the first series then continued lineups from April 1986 and all the way through the autumn of 1986 from September to December, thus introducing the entire second series of Thomas the Tank Engine and Friends, usually accompanied by S.A.M.A.N.T.H.A from The Telebugs.

Apart from presenting Children's ITV, Matthew has also starred in the long running biographical television documentary series, This Is Your Life.
