Sky Sports news is among the leading Round the clock sports news channels in UK and Ireland. Launched in October 1998, they’ve already made great strides now. Operated by Sky Sports, this channel is known to provide entertaining and informative news in the world of sport.
Aside from the content in the show, what also props up viewers attention are definitely 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 feminine news presenters of Sky Sports News.
Amongst the most popular Sky Sports News girls are Georgie Thompson, Millie Clode, Vicky Gomershall and Alex Hammond. Amongst them all it has been Georgie Thompson who’s been the most popular and successful. Currently living in the Upminister region of Essex, she’s been working together with Sky Sports since 2001. She has a keen understanding of sports and of the viewers at the same time. 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 as well as the US Open too. A sports woman herself, Georgie Thompson has taken part 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 8 weeks and culminated in the crowing of Mohammad Ali. It came as no great surprise when she was named one of the top 100 Sexiest Women In the World by the British mens magazine, FHM.
Amongst 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 as well. 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 understanding the dynamics on the news channel.
Vicky Gomershall joined the Sky Sports News team in 2005. She had started out a reporter covering events round the North West and ultimately migrated to being a presenter. A self confessed football fan, she actually 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 during the time 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 been a part of Sky Sports News fraternity since 2003. She has joined the team as a racing expert and proceeded to becoming the presenter of Good Morning Sports Fans. She’s interviewed several top racing names such as Sir Alex Ferguson, Mick Channon, Sir Bobby Robson, A.P. McCoy, Pat Eddery amongst many others.
