Sammy Dobson
Biography
Sammy T Dobson was the first candidate brought in to the studio on Steve's spring 2007 search for a "She-J" (so named by a Pilkipedia forum member [1]) and was officially made the regular female presenter in June 2007.
Sammy, 20, is originally from Newcastle and travels all the way from her current home in Northumberland to be on the show[2]. Whilst in her home town, Sammy likes nothing more than to don pyjamas and watch bad television, or to bounce endlessly around on a trampoline.
Sammy started acting in Northern school drama Byker Grove, playing the character of Sarah Young, and has also been in Casualty playing the character of Emma Gatts. Nowadays, she teaches children how to act and also works with deaf children, being herself fluent in sign language. She still acts occasionally, most recently in a film about dogging: Dogging: A Love Story, which featured her first sex scene. Bizarrely, Sammy's mother and father, who has longer hair than her and dresses as a cowboy, are also in the same and were spectating whilst the scene was being filmed.
Sammy is a music lover and states her top three bands are Gomez, Duke Special, and Aqualung [3].
