'Doctor Who' is one of those things that stays with you throughout your career, and I'm very happy with that.
I always had a real love of children's presenting, and I was lucky enough to do that and have an acting career alongside it.
My concept of a 'Doctor Who' girl was that you screamed a lot and ran around quarries in unsuitable footwear. Of course you fell over and twisted your ankle, because you had high heels on.
I always wanted to be a 'Blue Peter' presenter when I grew up!
I loved the medium of TV from the first moment that I got into a studio.
