Sky Sports news is among the leading Round the clock sports news channels in UK and Ireland. Launched in October 1998, they have made great strides now. Operated by Sky Sports, this channel is known to provide entertaining and informative news from the world of sport.
Aside from the content in the show, what also holds the viewers attention are the Sky Sports News girls. Beautiful, attractive, confident, intelligent and well informed these are only a few adjectives which can be used to explain the female news presenters of Sky Sports News.
One of the most popular Sky Sports News girls are Georgie Thompson, Millie Clode, Vicky Gomershall and Alex Hammond. Amongst all of them it’s been Georgie Thompson who’s been the most famous and successful. Currently living in the Upminister region of Essex, she’s been working with Sky Sports since 2001. She has a passionate comprehension of sports and also the viewers as well. Georgie Thompson has been responsible for covering some major sporting events including Grand Prix Masters, A1Grand Prix, and Race of the Champions, Speedway World Cup and the US Open as well. A sports woman herself, Georgie Thompson has participated in several international junior tennis championships during her formative years in Queenswood Boarding School.
Georgie Thompsn considers the legendary David Frost her mentor. She co-hosted the program “Greatest Sporting legends” with David Frost that ran for period of eight weeks and culminated in the crowing of Mohammad Ali. It came as no great surprise when she was named amongst the top 100 Sexiest Women In the World by the British mens magazine, FHM.
One of the latest Sky Sports News presenters is Millie Clode. Drop dead georgeous looks and a winning attitude took this girl from being a quiz show host to a television news presenter too. Ranked first in the Top ten TV Sports Babes by The Sun, Millie Clode continues to be with Sky Sports News since January 2006. Despite the fact that she was hired by Sky Sports News, she did not continue to turn into a presenter with immediate effect. She had to first spend a couple of months learning the dynamics on the news channel.
Vicky Gomershall joined the Sky Sports News team in 2005. She’d started off a reporter covering events around the North West and ultimately migrated to becoming a presenter. A self confessed football fan, she is a Cheltenham Town follower. Aside from football, cricket is also listed amongst her favorite sports. She’s also said to enjoy athletics and has run for Cheltenham back then when her hero was Daly Thompson. In the earlier years Vicky Gomershall played with the Fulham Ladies and still keeps that interest alive by playing 5-a-side-football.
Alex Hammond has become a part of Sky Sports News fraternity since 2003. She’s joined the team as a racing expert and proceeded to becoming the presenter of Good Morning Sports Fans. She has interviewed several top racing names such as Sir Alex Ferguson, Mick Channon, Sir Bobby Robson, A.P. McCoy, Pat Eddery amongst a great many others.
