Amy Cole can be seen reading some of the breakfast and lunchtime bulletins, and she’s also Spotlight’s reporter in North Devon. Amy was born in Mumbai and as a baby she was adopted and came to live in the South West in 1984. She spent her childhood years growing up in rural North Devon, surrounded by a menagerie of pets. Amy has always had a great interest in public speaking, as she explains: “I enjoyed writing speeches and delivering them to an audience.
“It gave me such a lot of confidence and the skills I learned through public speaking have been crucial in my work as a presenter/reporter.”
Amy Cole first started her media career as a news reader on North Devon’s Lantern FM radio station, where she helped to launch a weekend local news service. Amy also completed two years of a university degree, but managed to secure a reporting job at ITV West country News during her second year.
In 2004 Amy joined BBC Spotlight – a move she says, which has given her a wealth of opportunities. “I’ve had the chance to present bulletins, report, and have learned how to film and edit. I really enjoy being the North Devon reporter and presenting bulletins – both are a huge privilege.” In the past couple of years Amy Cole has had the travelling bug which has seen her do some charity work at an orphanage in India.
We’re listening to Ms Swift and I’m getting a makeover. So daddy can play video games in peace. 🥰
This is what happens when I finally get the chance to sit down!! I am now a walking sticker book! At least it kept him occupied for ten minutes. Hope you’re all having a lovely weekend!
Not sure if all this publicity has gone to his head a little. Arthur has seen the coverage of his handsome self on @bbcmtd with @AmyColeNews and has asked that all future meals be brought to his dressing room. This was him huffing off when the demand was declined 😳
