Jessie is a 50-something journalist and filmmaker who is always striving to personally redefine what being ‘middle-aged’ means.
She’s worked in media since 1988, initially starting out as a reporter for a court news agency. She moved on to the News of the World Newspaper, and was given the chance by then Editor, Piers Morgan, to write a film review column, which she did for six years.
She went on to be DVD critic for the Daily Mirror for 11 years and was lucky enough to regularly work with fellow critic Jonathan Ross.
In her spare time, she’s a keen filmmaker and scriptwriter and has made a number of short films and a feature documentary about pop group N’Dubz.
