"Jenny is ideally placed to help build the programme for the future. She has a wonderful presenting style, is very bright, learns quickly, and her strong grasp of economics will stand her in good stead in the studio," said Jamie Donald, the editor of BBC live political programmes.


If she's such an amazing presenter, why did she get totally dumped off 'The Weekend Business' programme on 5 Live?

I'm not sure of the timeline - but she took a lot of time off in a career break - so disappeared from our screens and our radios for a while. I don't know if this was why she wasn't on 5Live for a bit.
