About Angela
Over the last nineteen years, Angela has presented on TV, radio, new and ‘old’ media, live events, awards, conferences and even a couture fashion show. She has voiced videos, documentaries, adverts and CD-ROMs and has ‘polished’ other speakers, too. She is probably best known for “It’ll Never Work?”, which ran for six years on BBC1 with viewing figures of around 4 million. “It’ll Never Work?” has now been sold worldwide and has collected a gaggle of gongs including a BAFTA and two RTS awards.
After school, Angela gained a 1st-class degree in IT and worked for several companies as a systems analyst & IT manager, including IBM.
Angela loves her job and has a zest for life in general. She’s just as happy whether she’s hosting a conference on nuclear fusion, shooting an interview, pottering around the garden or sailing in the Caribbean. A ‘closet’ DJ, she has an offbeat sense of humour and aims to eventually become an eccentric nonagenarian who still sails the Med.
