This months podcast is one I was so proud to get as it's a chat with someone who was a big part of my childhood, it's a chat with CITV's Danielle Nicholls!
You can also listen to the chat on Youtube, Spotify and Apple Podcasts
Danielle's first showbiz break actually wasn't in kids TV but in music as she was a member of the short lived pop group Pure Gossip. Danielle didn't particularly enjoy her time there so after leaving the group, Danielle spotted an advert looking for new presenters for CITV and the rest is history!

Danielle presented the in-vision continuity links on CITV alongside Stephen Mulhern (and later Andrea Green and Tom Darvill) between 1998 and 2001. Which back then came live from Birmingham every week.

These days she can be found on Twitch with her sister Jodie, streaming and gaming regularly under the name Biignoobs. Additionally she has recently began stand up comedy.
A big thank you to Danielle for taking time out of her day with her children during the school holidays to chat with me, some great anecdotes and memories are shared of those brilliant live days of CITV. Enjoy!
