Gabby Logan
How did Gabby Logan make the transition from a Commonwealth Games Rythmic Gymnast to ITV's Principal Football Presenter? Just how difficult was it making her way up the broadcast ladder as a woman in a man's world? Gabby talks of her experiences from a lifetime spent in a male-dominated sporting arena to the motivation needed to reach the top of her chosen profession and then to stay there, the teamwork required to be able to present a programme such as the Champions League Final and the leadership skills she uses to make everything run moothly in front of the cameras.
Gabby, who has a law degree from Durham University, has a wonderful gift of seeing the funny side of life and has a fund of behind the scenes anecdotes from both football and rugby, particularly from the Rugby World Cup, which she presented from Australia in 2003. She is also a regular columnist for The Times.
In 2003 Gabby was a member of ITV's team at the 2003 Rugby World Cup in Australia and in addition to her sports broadcasting career Gabby has presented several entertainment shows such as "The Great British Driving Test" and "50 Things to do Before You Die". Gabby also co-hosted Sports Relief 2004, with Gary Lineker and presented ITV's quiz show "The Vault" in the summer of 2004 during which she had the first million pound winner on live television.
