She is best known as a former television and radio presenter, who has also worked as a model, actress and novelist. Early life and careerGiles was born in Griffithstown, near Pontypool, Torfaen, the eldest of three sisters. She was expelled from boarding school aged 16 for going to see Steve Harley and Cockney Rebel play in Bristol, where she was seen smoking in the street.[3] CareerBetween 1977 and 1982, she trained and worked as a secretary, mostly employed in advertising agencies. Whilst attending a shoot for Boots No. 7 cosmetics, royal make-up artist Barbara Daly suggested taking a shot of her. Giles agreed, and the agency subsequently used the shot for their campaign. Giles was then signed up by top agency Models 1, and became the official model for Max Factor.[3] Giles started her media career in the 1990s on Razzmatazz and Night Network, and appeared in the 1993 film Riders. She came to prominence as co-presenter of ITV's Posh Frocks and New Trousers with Sarah Greene.[3] She was in numerous entertainment shows, and a panelist on game shows ranging from Have I Got News for You to Shooting Stars; she was a regular panelist on Through the Keyhole and BBC Radio 4's Loose Ends and has also appeared on BBC Radio 4's Just a Minute. On Noel Edmonds' House Party she guessed a Gotcha! before it had even started. In 1995, Giles wrote and performed a one-woman show at the Edinburgh Festival, called Looking for Mr.Giles, and a second show the following year, 'Anyone Can be A TV Presenter'.[4] Giles is also a Penguin author; her first novel, Birthday Girls, reached number 6 in the top 10 in the best-seller lists in 2001.[3] She published Crossing the Paradise Line in 2003 and The Defrosting of Charlotte Small in 2006. In November 2013, Giles and Vincent Simone entered the Australian jungle as late arrivals in the 13th season of I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here!.[5] Giles was the first celebrity to leave the jungle, on 1 December.[6][7] Since early 2014, Giles has regularly guested on the Channel 5 chat show The Wright Stuff hosted by Matthew Wright.{{citation needed|date=February 2017}} Since retraining, she now works as a counsellor/psychotherapist in Brighton and London.[8] Giles is a patron of the charity Amaze Brighton and The Sussex Beacon.{{citation needed|date=February 2017}} Personal lifeGiles married the lead singer of Ultravox, Midge Ure, a founder of Band Aid and Live Aid.
