The One Show in major shake up to celebrate Strictly star’s milestone birthday


The One Show is celebrating the milestone birthday of a national TV treasure and Strictly Come Dancing star in a special broadcast on Friday evening

To celebrate her milestone birthday, The One Show will be marking her long career by looking back at some of the highlights, with clips from her iconic, leg-flashing appearance on The Morecambe and Wise Show’s Christmas special, as well as archive footage from her career as a broadcaster. She was also one of the co-presenters of the BBC’s coverage of Prince Charles and Lady Diana Spencer’s wedding in 1981, and reported for the channel on the 1979 general election. More recently, Angela has become known for presenting daytime consumer series Rip-Off Britain, with Gloria Hunniford and Julia Somerville, and she also competed on Dancing on Ice in 2011 and Strictly Come Dancing in 2023, where she was paired with professional dancer Kai Widdrington.
