About Me

Sorry to Break the Fourth Wall , but this page is purely satirical and has nothing to do with the real Fiona Bruce!

"Good evening, Im Fiona Bruce, and Im sitting on the luckiest chair in BBC Television Center." Fiona Bruce, '06

I began my career at the BBC in 1989 as a researcher and then as assistant producer on Panorama, covering a variety of ground-breaking stories which took me to locations throughout Europe, the Gulf, Kurdistan and the USA.

Prior to my role at the Ten, I presented the Six O'Clock News. In 2001 I was the first woman presenter to be part of the BBC's election team.

In October 2002, George Best spoke frankly to me in his first television interview since his life-saving liver transplant for the BBC ONE programme George Best: Me and My Liver.

In December 2002, I travelled to the Ivory Coast to meet Victoria Climbie's parents for a special 4 x 4 programme on BBC One.

I have presented The Antiques Show, Newsnight and the weekly current affairs programme Public Eye for BBC TWO, and have reported on the BBC One flagship current affairs programme, Panorama.

Prior to this I presented the BBC World Service's daily programme TV Newsday and reported on BBC One's Breakfast News in 1992, before joining BBC South East as a news presenter and reporter for the regional current affairs programme, First Sight.

I speak fluent French and Italian and am a graduate of Oxford University, where I sang in rock bands and dyed my hair blue!

Love Fifi! xXx
