Why we love Alex Jones
It's often all too easy to overlook Wales when you're thinking about the United Kingdom, but they're pretty neat. Quite aside from all that rugby, singing, and lovely hills etc. they occasionally produce top-notch TV presenters like Alex Jones.
Alex Jones has been on TV for a while. She appeared on the incredibly '90s gameshow Prickly Heat waaaay back in 1998 – Prickly Heat, for those of you who aren't aware, was a Sky One lewd-'em-up which featured a bikini-clad Davina McCall presenting the sort of beach-based sexy fun games that wouldn't be out of place in a Carry On film – and had to sit her uni exams in Magaluf on account of filming taking place over there. That's the least exciting thing a young lady can do in Magaluf, we reckon.
Although you'll probably know her for presenting The One Show - reprising the role of Pretty Tanned Lady from A Country Other Than England from Christine Bleakley – she also does a load of Welsh-language TV shows on S4C, like travel programme Toycn and Chwa, a show about extreme sports with an fairly unextreme name. Maybe it translates to HyperDeath MurderBoard Pro in English. As you might have guessed, our Welsh isn't as good as it could be.
Should you require proof of Alex's linguistic skills (after all, being able to speak multiple languages is officially HOT) here's a video of her speaking a whole bunch of Welsh into a camera on the Chwa website. Wish we could do that. Closest we can get is saying 'Two beers, please, and my friend will pay' in a loose handful of European languages.
