About Me

TV and Radio Presenter, Speaker and Event Host.
I'm a colourful, sussed, warm, down to earth, knowledgable Northerner.
An optimist with a real love for life, I'm all about people, ​their stories, politics and what makes the world go round.

"Peg was a natural, a shameless flirt with an alternative interview style to mainstream presenters. She had politicians eating out of her hand thanks to her warmth and subject knowledge. ​​Memorable with an easy, natural style of delivery." Judges wording at the O2 Media Awards 2016, Highly Commended Broadcast Presenter
