Lizzie Crow

Early on Lizzie realised her passion lay in presenting. Despite trying almost every other career going nothing ever replaced her burning desire.

Lizzie started out as a Black Thunder girl working for Wyvern Fm in her home city of Worcester. This meant being part of the promotional team enthusiastically giving away station stickers in supermarket car parks in the rain. From these delectable spots she would do outside broadcasts back to the studio, trying to get a foot in the door. There were glamorous moments like dancing in front of 13,000 people at a gig, interviewing the Worcester Warriors rugby team when they reached the premiership and various other live events. However when the big break seemed to be eluding her it was time to move on.

At this point Lizzie was given a network show across two stations, Classic Hits and Sunshine 855, doing their late night slot The Week-day Wind Down. All went swimmingly as she did her show, voice over work and compared at live events. And with interesting listeners, life was never dull.

Lizzie was itching to get to the City and so moved to London 2 years ago. Initially she was involved with Five TV behind the scenes until an opportunity showed itself on Premier Radio.

Lizzie has been presenting the Saturday Big Breakfast with Tony since the beginning of Dec 2007 and is enjoying every moment, even the early mornings.
