Best known for presenting such shows as Top of the Pops, Live &amp; Kicking, Children in Need, The Big Breakfast and The Gadget Show. In 2005 Gail developed alopecia totalis, causing her to loose her hair. She decided not to wear a hat or wig in order to raise awareness of the condition and became ambassador for the Little Princess Trust, a charity which provides wigs to children with hair loss. Gail’s alopecia was the subject of the BBC ONE Life series documentary Gail Porter Laid Bare in 2006. She is a vice-president of The Children's Trust, a UK charity for children with brain injuries. Gail’s latest show, Spooked Scotland is available now on Really and Discovery+. Gail Porter is guest number 193 on My Time Capsule and chats to Michael Fenton Stevens about the five things she'd like to put in a time capsule; four she’d like to preserve and one she’d like to bury and never have to think about again .</p><p><br></p><p>Spooked Scotland is available now on Really and Discovery+.</p><p><br></p><p>Follow Gail Porter on <a href=\"http://twitter.com/Gailporter\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Twitter</a>: @Gailporter and <a href=\"https://www.instagram.com/iamgailporter\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Instagram</a> @iamgailporter .</p><p><br></p><p>Follow My Time Capsule on <a href=\"http://twitter.com/MyTCpod\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Twitter</a>, <a href=\"http://instrgram.com/MyTCpod\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Instagram</a> &amp; <a href=\"http://facebook.com/MyTCpod\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Facebook</a>: @MyTCpod .</p><p><br></p><p>Follow Michael Fenton Stevens on <a href=\"http://twitter.com/fentonstevens\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Twitter</a>: @fentonstevens and <a href=\"https://www.instagram.com/mikefentonstevens/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Instagram</a> @mikefentonstevens .</p><p><br></p><p>Produced and edited by John Fenton-Stevens for Cast Off Productions .</p><p>Music by <a href=\"http://www.passthepeasmusic.com/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Pass The Peas Music</a> .</p><p>Artwork by <a href=\"https://matthewboxall.com/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">matthewboxall.com</a> .</p><p><br></p><p>This podcast is proud to be associated with the charity <a href=\"https://www.viva-group.org.uk/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Viva!</a> Providing theatrical opportunities for hundreds of young people.</p>","author_name":"Cast Off Productions"}
