Fiona Bruce (Presenter)
Born: April 25, 1964 in Singapore City, Singapore
Best Known For: Presenting news bulletins and Antiques Roadshow.
Early-life: Fiona Elizabeth Bruce was born in Singapore on April 25, 1964. She attended various schools in Europe before settling in London, where she went to Haberdashers' Aske's Hatcham College in New Cross. During this period, she modelled for Jackie magazine. Following her A levels, she studied French and Italian at Hertford College, Oxford. She sang in a number of rock bands and during a year in Paris, she fronted a group called Chez Nous. After graduating, Bruce worked as a management consultant and in advertising before embarking on a career in journalism.
Career: She began working as a researcher and assistant producer for Panorama in 1989. Three years later, Bruce became a reporter for BBC Breakfast News, before joining BBC South East, where she presented daily news bulletins and regional current affairs programmes. By 1994, Bruce was a reporter for BBC Two's Public Eye and began appearing on the Six O'Clock and Breakfast News. She was chosen to succeed the late Jill Dando on Crimewatch UK in 2000. She is also one of the two main presenters on the BBC's 10 O'Clock News and hosted the prime-time current affairs magazine Real Story. Bruce has also appeared on Call My Bluff, Just the Two of Us, and Who Wants to be a Millionaire? She is the face of the Antiques Roadshow.
Quote: "I do feel like I have it all, but how long that will last, heaven only knows. TV is a very transient business."

Michael McIntyre (Contributor)
Born: February 21, 1976 in London
Best Known For: Coming from obscurity to being the biggest name in comedy seemingly overnight
Early-life: Born in 1976, in South London to a dancer and comedy writer Ray Cameron, McIntyre had a thoroughly middle-class upbringing that he describes as being entirely short of misery or material. He did his first open mic spot in 2001 having dropped out of a biology degree at Edinburgh University.
Career: Hailed as the best new stand-up to emerge in a decade, Michael has taken the comedy world by storm. He delivered electrifying sets on both We Are Not Amused (Prince Charles's 60th birthday celebrations on ITV1) and the Royal Variety Performance (BBC One), plus a stand-out performance as host on the first episode of BBC One's Live at the Apollo, leading to the Comedy Roadshow vehicle.
Quote: "Don't Man City and Man United sound a bit like gay clubs? 'Where you off to tonight? Man City? We're off to Man United. And a bit later we're off to the MEN Arena.'"
Trivia: His debut DVD release, Michael McIntyre Live & Laughing, became the fastest selling debut stand-up DVD of all time, selling more than 600,000 copies.
