From 2004, she spent two years co-presenting a Saturday morning radio program on BBC Radio Five Live with Eamonn Holmes and also presented sixty-four episodes of Taste, a daily food programme on Sky3. Her other jobs include modelling – where she stands at five foot ten inches – and journalism, where she writes for newspapers such as The Independent, The Daily Telegraph and The Daily Mail.

Famous quotes containing the words television and/or presenter:
“The technological landscape of the present day has enfranchised its own electorates—the inhabitants of marketing zones in the consumer goods society, television audiences and news magazine readerships... vote with money at the cash counter rather than with the ballot paper at the polling booth.”
—J.G. (James Graham)
“It is more than likely that the brain itself is, in origin and development, only a sort of great clot of genital fluid held in suspense or reserved.... This hypothesis ... would explain the enormous content of the brain as a maker or presenter of images.”
—Ezra Pound (1885–1972)
