Jenni Falconer made her on-screen debut over three decades ago on Blind Date. Since then, she's worked on some of TV and radio's biggest shows. The radio and television presenter turned 50 recently, and with several marathons under her belt, has pulled on her running shoes once again for today's London Marathon.
This time, she's running it to fundraise for Marie Curie. "I’m focusing fully on running the London Marathon," Jenni tells me. "I have run marathons before, and I've worked on many doing TV coverage, so I know how important the fundraising element is. Marie Curie is the headline charity, and while I can’t say that I have ever benefited personally from the incredible work they do, it doesn't mean I can't appreciate it. It’s an absolutely amazing cause, and what they do, both for palliative care and support for families, really makes a difference."
