Fern Britton
On her new autobiography

As one of our best loved and highest paid TV presenters, Fern Britton's success has been attributed to her warmth, humour and honesty, and some would argue, her size. But when, following a dramatic weight loss of five stone, she revealed that it had been achieved following an operation to fit a gastric band, her career seemed to hang in the balance. As her autobiography is published, Jane talks to her about her successful career in television, her battle with depression, her body image and the controversial gastric band.

"Fern My Story" by Fern Britton is published by Michael Joseph on 6th November ISBN-10: 0718154614
