Viking FM

Rosie was born on April 24th 1986 at the height of an average 14 year old! (As you know our Rosie now stands at a whopping 6ft 2”).

In her younger years Rosie modelled for a while but then discovered she liked food. She even tried her hand at acting, bagging a part in Channel 4’s Shameless as little Lisa which gives us endless micky taking opportunities.

Rosie loves playing netball, singing, white water rafting and politics (she doesn’t but she asked us to put those last two to make her sound more exciting and intelligent).

Rosie is a lerrrcle girl and lives in Hessle with her bald cat Keith. (Yes, just like that freaky one offa’ friends).

Rosie likes nothing better than having a laugh with her fellow presenter Jim, although she has been known to clear public places with that laugh of hers! Seriously- it’s like a monkey!!

Most embarrassing moment: Walking across the Humber Bridge dressed as a loo, standing on the A63 with a trophy deer’s head on my head, being the only 6ft 2” munchkin in Wizard of Oz at the Hull New Theatre, having Martine McCutcheon walk out of an interview with me after I kept calling her Tiffany and reciting the words of “this is my moment” to her for a dare….
