Davina Lucy Pascale McCall〔 (born 16 October 1967)〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=McCALL, Davina )〕 is an British television presenter. She has hosted Channel 4's ''The Million Pound Drop Live'', ''Five Minutes to a Fortune'' and ''The Jump'', Sky1's ''Got to Dance'', as well as ITV's ''Long Lost Family'' and ''Stepping Out''. McCall was the presenter of ''Big Brother'' during its run on Channel 4 between 2000 and 2010. Having fronted the weekly live eviction shows every year since the beginning, she decided not to return as host after it was dropped by Channel 4 in 2010 and relaunched by Channel 5 the following year. After a difficult childhood, in her early twenties McCall had pursued various jobs, including becoming a solo singer, but later embarked on a career in television with a first job presenting for satellite music channel MTV in 1992. After further work on terrestrial channels she became a household name thanks to ''Big Brother'', while also continuing to work with other hosting vehicles on various channels, from game shows to talent shows. She has also been a regular co-presenter of the ''Comic Relief'' annual telethons since 2005. Departures from presenting into other television roles, through a sitcom, a documentary series and fronting her own chat show, have all proven to be unsuccessful, and beyond ''Big Brother'' she has continued in the mainstream as a presenter on Channel 4, ITV and Sky1. ==Early life== McCall was born on 16 October 1967 in Wimbledon, London〔 to Florence (née Hennion) and Andrew McCall, and at the age of three went to live with her paternal grandparents in Surrey after the break-up of her parents' marriage.〔 〕 Her French mother Florence – whom McCall has described as something of a "wild child" and later, specifically as "an alcoholic" – returned to Paris, and McCall saw her only when on holidays. Her relationship with her mother was a difficult one and she has said that her mother "should never have had kids" describing how she once left her, at the age of 12, in a nightclub on her own. She continued to see her father Andrew, a graphic designer, at weekends before moving in with him and his new wife Gaby when she was 13 years old.〔 〕 McCall attended the St Catherine's School, Bramley near Guildford, Surrey and Godolphin and Latymer Girls School,〔 〕 an independent school in Hammersmith, West London. At secondary level, McCall studied for nine O levels and two A levels. McCall is fluent in French, due to her French mother. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Davina McCall」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
