TWO presenters from the north have been among the cast of long-running programme Blue Peter.
The late Caron Keating joined the team in late 1986 and would appear with Peter Duncan, Janet Ellis, Yvette Fielding, and John Leslie during her four year stint.
Her highlights included a trip to Moscow in 1987 during the perestroika period and swimming with sharks. She also interviewed the then Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher on the programme in 1988.
Keating, the daughter of broadcaster Gloria Hunniford, died of breast cancer in 2004.
Former Miss Northern Ireland Zoe Salmon was named the 30th presenter when she joined the programme.
She said she had no idea she had been applying when she answered an anonymous newspaper advert.
After undergoing a series of interviews and rigorous audition - including conducting an interview while jumping on a trampoline - she was told she had the coveted job in 2004.
She went on to become the first presenter to run the London marathon and to pull her own parachute cord on a freefall jump.
In 2005, Blue Peter boss Anne Gilchrist was forced to apologise after Salmon suggested using the Red Hand of Ulster as a plane design. She caused further controversy later by selecting a design of a map of Ireland, covered in the Union flag, as one of her favourites in a competition.
She left in June 2008.
