Zöe Salmon is the glamorous Ulster-born former host of BBC1 children's TV hit show Blue Peter, first appearing as the 30th presenter of the show in the December 2004 Christmas special.

She is no newcomer to the limelight, having made her first screen appearance in a cameo role as the Silver Slipper-wearer in little known film version of The Wizard of Oz at just 14-years-old.

She then went on to study law at Queen's University, Belfast, before qualifying as a solicitor and later proved she had beauty as well as brains when she scooped the title of Miss Northern Ireland in 1999.
