I think that no one, or very few, are born as good presenters. It's a skill that you learn. The key is the 10/20/30 rule: 10 slides given in 20 minutes using no font smaller than 30 points. If people just adhered to this rule, they would double or triple the quality of their presentations.

Guy Kawasaki

I don't like to be me. I'm not so comfortable being me on screen because then I'd be a presenter. I'm not Jimmy Fallon.

Aaron Taylor-Johnson

I was a radio presenter in Dubai for five years.

Alex Hirschi

I didn't mean to be a TV presenter, I just hated modeling. It feels very odd that it's turned into this 'It-girl' thing. What does that even mean? I wear clothes and I go out. It's so weird.

Alexa Chung

Then the BBC approached me in 2005 and asked me to be one of the presenters of the series 'Coast', which turned into a very long-running series.

Alice Roberts

I was about 15 years old, and I needed a job, and somebody I know - I don't even know who it was - said that there was a television show that needed a presenter and that I should go and audition for it, so I did. That was a show called 'The Word,' and I got that job.

Amanda de Cadenet

People know more about my views than they do about most BBC presenters because I had a life before becoming a BBC presenter.

Andrew Neil

Some presenters can go their whole careers without even having one of the shows that we've got. It's better than working for a living, let's be honest!

Ant McPartlin

My goal is to be the best TV presenter, the best entertainer, the best singer. I still want to be the best dancer. I want to be the best at everything I do.

Anton du Beke

I had a short run as the presenter of 'Cash in the Attic'. It's a very popular show but didn't really suit me.

Ben Fogle

How you look has become ridiculously disproportionate to what you do. Critics are more harsh on female presenters.

Carol Vorderman

Television is where I'm most at home. I'm not one of those TV presenters who secretly yearns to be a Hollywood actress. Live telly is what I thrive on.

Caroline Flack

Ever since I was a presenter on CBBC and used to see the 'Strictly' judges walking around Television Centre, I have wanted to be on the show.

Caroline Flack

You don't reinvent something that had three amazing presenters without a few bumps along the way.

Chris Harris

On my gravestone, I want 'Here lies the singer,' not 'Here lies the T.V. presenter'.

Cilla Black

I never imagined I'd be a presenter on television, but I'm happy to put myself out of my comfort zone.

Darcey Bussell

If, like me, you've never watched 'Game of Thrones', the podcast 'Binge Mode: 'Game of Thrones'' ought to be unlistenable. It isn't, thanks to the energy of the two expert presenters Mallory Rubin and Jason Concepcion, who have the wit to laugh at their own deep-dive devotion and are helped out by some smart editing.

David Hepworth

One of my very greatest fears as a child was being ridiculed in public. And there it was coming true. As a television presenter, I'd been respected. People come up to you in the street and shake your hand and talk to you in a respectful way.

David Icke

When we used to watch some BBC kids' shows it felt like some of the presenters were parental figures, we wanted to be their cheeky uncles really, their fun uncles, and speak to them on their level.

Declan Donnelly

We were lucky that when we were making the transition from children's to prime time a lot of other presenters our age shied away from that arena.

Declan Donnelly

It's funny. I don't really think of us as TV presenters. I think of TV presenters as responsible people who show children what to do with empty fairy liquid bottles. Not a couple of blokes who don't mind telling kids to shut up.
