She is an outspoken commentator on modern relationships, sex, love, dating and all the girl-talk that those things throw up. She’s appeared on Channel 4, The Vanessa Show on Five, Current TV and lots of radio too, talking about things like monogamy, the attraction of power, marriage as an outdated ideal, adultery, celebrity affairs and, once, about shoes!

She’s been told it’s quite funny. And she’s a judge and presenter for the annual Erotic Awards, run in aid of The Outsiders, a charity which helps disabled people find partners.

This summer she hosted a a magazine discussion show, Let’s Talk Sex, on Body in Balance, Sky 275, broadcast live three times per week. It covered discussions on sex related stories in the news, tips, advise, celebrity relationship gossip, book reviews, and event previews.

She’s also fronted two documentaries for Current TV, including ‘Extreme Dating’, a look at niche and unusual dating trends and Steroids in our Gyms, which required her to take anabolic steroids for a month (!) and film the results. (see the TV page – it wasn’t Helen’s most glamorous best).

Before letting herself loose as a freelance writer, Helen started off in local radio as breakfast newsreader for Silk FM before working as a producer and presenter for ITN for five years and then for Current TV.
