After three years there, she left to work in London in the early 1980s as a continuity announcer and newsreader on BBC Radio 4.
[2] The response to her voice on Radio 4 at this time was negative; some listeners believed the BBC's commitment to accurate pronunciation was in decline.
[3][4][5] Later in the 1980s she moved to daytime television, co-presenting Open Air, and continued with voiceover work when the show ended.
She has done voiceovers for many Discovery Channel shows (including some episodes of Forensic Detectives and The FBI Files), and for Bravo's series Street Crime UK.
On a JustGiving page appealing for funds to help with her care, the family said "After over 30 years on air, the condition has left her unable to work."
