Jackie Todd Brambles (born 1 March 1967) is a British journalist, radio DJ and television presenter.
When Sybil Ruscoe left her role as Simon Mayo's weather and travel reporter on the breakfast show, Brambles took over that slot, thereby keeping her on air every day over two separate programmes.
[citation needed] In 1993 she married a Scotsman named Jim Sherry and left BBC Radio 1 in 1994 to move to the United States, where she lived for 11 years.
She also worked as a media consultant to several high-profile companies in Silicon Valley, including Intel, Oracle and Sony.
[citation needed] Six months after returning to the UK in 2005, Brambles married David Todd, who works in financial services, and had her first child.
[12] In December 2008, Nuts magazine held their annual 'Woman I Secretly Adore' poll, in which Brambles came second with 18% of the vote.
