Selina Scott has anchored TV broadcasts on both sides of the Atlantic for three decades.

Her career started in Scotland, initially in print on the Sunday Post before moving to Grampian TV. She was one of the first women to present ITN's News at Ten before launching BBC Breakfast TV in the 1980s and presented numerous news and current affairs programmes alongside the likes of Sir David Frost, Nick Ross, and David Dimbleby.

She has produced and presented some of the most highly acclaimed documentaries on the Royal heads of Europe including, A Prince Among the Islands – a profile of Prince Charles, a profile of King Juan Carlos of Spain and The Return Of The King, profiling King Constantine's first visit to his native land for 25 years.

She has broadcast on Sky in the UK and also launched the Clothes Show for the BBC.

In the US, Selina worked for CBS presenting the award-winning coast to coast current affairs show West 57th and was the first journalist in the world to expose the cruel ivory trafficking trade in Kenya. Her work in highlighting the slaughter of elephants led directly to a new CITIES agreement made in Washington, which effectively banned the poaching of ivory. She also presented her own chat show - the Selina Scott Show – for NBC which was broadcast nightly in Europe.

Most recently she has presented a number of countryside and animal related programmes in the UK such as ITV's "Tales from the country" and "Animal Rescue Live" for the BBC. She even won the Underdog Show on the BBC with her dog Chump!
