**Weekend Afternoons 1pm-4pm**
Emma B has forged a highly successful broadcast career spanning over 15 years at some of the world's best-known radio stations. She became known as Emma B when she worked for Creation Records alongside Oasis and Primal Scream.
Although her first taste of radio was when she was 8, as part of Timmy Mallet's Radio Oxford weekend show, the real break came when she worked at the legendary Radio Caroline (at Bristol dock) on the infamous 'Boat That Rocked' before moving to London and selling advertising and then writing articles for magazines including Elle, New Woman, Q and NME. Whilst trying to forge a path back to radio, Emma worked in the music business at Creation Records and then at Island Records with artists like U2, Tricky and PJ Harvey.
Emma joined BBC Radio 1 in 1998 and in April 2000 she co-presented the Sunday Surgery show, alongside Dr Mark Hamilton. The Sunday Surgery dealt with ground-breaking social and health issues for teenagers, including sex, drugs, poverty and crime. She won 4 Sony Awards for it and has been singled out as having saved lives through the show.
Emma has previously lived in Ibiza with her husband and 2 children where she had a small PR company dealing with clients such as Sony /Columbia Records. She had a weekly radio show on Ibiza-based station Sonica and hosted a series of live radio broadcasts from the Pacha Terrace and the DJ Awards 2010. Emma took a short break from radio to work in the charity sector at Macmillan Cancer Support & Teenage Cancer Trust, using her skills to fundraise and spread the word.
Emma returned to radio when she joined Magic Radio in 2017, where she now hosts weekdays from 1pm – 4pm. Emma's infectious sense of humour and mischievousness keeps the UK going all afternoon.
Emma loves arts and culture and a good book. Her TV favourites are any murder mysteries from Vera to Midsummer Murders and Death in Paradise to Trigger Point. Anything written by Jed Mercurio with Vicky McClure is a must watch, as well as an Agatha Christie thrown in for good measure. Emma, like the nation, has been gripped by Succession as well as recent dramas including It's a Sin, Sex Education & Euphoria.

She's also a committed theatre fan and is as happy singing along to Dear Evan Hanson as she is hosting the red carpet at the Olivier Awards. And at the opposite end of the glamour stakes, loves nothing better than getting her hands dirty in her garden
