Angela will be filling in as a co-host on ‘The One Show’ while regular Welsh presenter Alex Jones is on maternity leave from January 2017.

"I'm over the moon to get the chance to present one of my favourite shows on TV and I'm thrilled to be looking after Alex's spot on the green sofa while she is away. I have always been a massive fan of The One Show and love being part of that wonderful family so I really can't wait to get started, “Angela says in a BBC press release.

The 32-year-old will feature on Thursdays and Fridays and will be one of the two presenters lined up to fill in for Alex during her time off alternating with Michelle Ackerley.

Scanlon has presented for RTE on the following shows; documentary ‘Oi Ginger!’ and the follow-up series ‘Angela Scanlon: Full Frontal’ and ‘Angela Scanlon's Close Encounters’ for RTÉ2, RTÉ/BBCNI travel show ‘Getaways’.
