Career: Her first job was on The Field magazine. She later became a wine correspondent because: "I realised early in life that one wanted to do jobs that had wonderful perks." She joined BBC Two's Food and Drink programme in 1982, becoming one of its most popular presenters, but quit the show in 2000. She has also hosted The Great Antiques Hunt and Going, Going Gone for the BBC and has continued to work as a journalist, writing for publications including Vogue, Cosmopolitan and Tatler and penning a column for the Sunday Express Magazine. She appeared in the fifth series of I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! and has been a judge on ITV's Britain's Best Dish (later Best Dish) since 2007.
