Debbie King
Biography
Leeds-born presenter + producer who rose to the dizzy heights of ITV1 late night as the chief presenter and co-devisor of Quizmania, which achieved amazing success (yes, even a website as critical of participation TV has to admit it). Before that, she was far less known as an anchorwoman of 9 Live Quiz TV on E4 and Nation217 as well as many an obscure digital station. Debbie says that her unique quality is you don't see her coming, somehow. Her last TV exposure was that memorable ITV Play triumph, The Debbie King Show.
She now presents a video podcast called StudentCooking.tv and is said to be preparing an online revival of Quizmania.
Trivia
She was born on the same day (31 May 1977) as Joel Ross. And they were both born in Yorkshire, too: Joel in Scarborough and Debbie at the other end of the A64 in Leeds.
Her career began at the age of 4, as an extra in the Pink Floyd film, The Wall.
She already has a footprint in international television - the Quizmania format has sold to Australia, Columbia, France and Poland.
