Julia Bradbury is one of the small screen’s most popular and versatile presenters.
Having taken the helm on BBC One’s rural affairs show Countryfile alongside Matt Baker in 2009, the show’s ratings soared to over 7 million viewers.
Julia’s reputation as the face of the outdoors began when she fronted Wainwright Walks, a stunning BBC Four series shot in the Lake District.
In Climb Britain for BBC1, Julia faced her fears and managed to successfully climb to the top of The Old Man of Stoer – a 60-meter high sea stack that surges from the sea alongside the cliffs in Lochinver, Sutherland. Julia had never rock climbed before and regards this as one of her most frightening challenges.
As a pioneer for outdoor exploration and adventure, drawing on her epic travels throughout the UK, Julia Bradbury has contributed to DK Travel Guides’ Where To Go When: Great Britain and Ireland.
Julia’s walking themed shows include:
- South Africa Walks
- Julia Bradbury’s German Wanderlust
- Canal Walks with Julia Bradbury
- Julia Bradbury’s Icelandic Walk
- Britain’s Best Walks
- Best Walks with a View with Julia Bradbury
Additional TV ventures include BBC Three’s Kill It, Cook It, Eat It, exploring how our meat makes its way from field to fork; from rearing to the often stomach-churning slaughter.
Julia’s impressive back catalogue of presenting posts includes a five year stint on consumer affairs programme Watchdog, a posting to Los Angeles as Hollywood correspondent for GMTV, hosting the launch of Channel 5 in 1997, before going on to present Exclusive! for Five, as well as a decade of travel journalism presenting Wish You Were Here for ITV1 and The Rough Guide for Channel 5.
More recently, Julia presented the first of a new ITV series entitled The Greek Islands with Julia Bradbury.
