“Jane has done a terrific job on the new series 'Wreck or Ready’ - she's bright, warm, funny, quick, looks great - what more could I ask for?"

Jo Street - Commissioning Editor, BBC

“Jane proved to be the first-class presenter we knew she was, and on top of this, she was good fun and fitted in very well with all of our team.

Ipex is a bit of a Marathon, but Jane managed to retain her good humour (even into the second week!), which is no mean feat and reflects her professional approach to her work."
