Biography

Former newspaper journalist who joined the BBC in the late 1960s and worked her way up from regional reports to presenting the 9 O'clock News. She made an impression with her "Let's Face The Music and Dance" routine in the 1976 Morecambe & Wise Christmas Special, which led to her later role as host of Come Dancing. She went on to host The Antiques Roadshow and Top Gear before becoming part of TV-am's ill-fated inaugural Famous Five line-up, after which she returned to the BBC and landed right back on her feet with Masterteam. She also hosted a weekly show, Live with Angela Rippon, on the now defunct ITV News Channel.

Trivia

One of the few game show hosts to have had a top ten album - her smash hit being Shape Up And Dance With Angela Rippon.
