Sally James is a former presenter on the ITV Saturday morning children's show Tiswas from 1977 until it ended in 1982. Before this success, she was an actress on such television shows as The Two Ronnies, Crown Court, Father Dear Father, Dixon of Dock Green, Curry & Chips and The Protectors. Film roles included a small part in To Sir, with Love, The Railway Children, and the glam rock film Never Too Young To Rock. Richard Marson's book celebrating fifty years of Blue Peter comments that James was considered as a possible replacement for Lesley Judd in the 1970s. She now runs a business selling school uniforms in Cobham, Surrey, using her married name of Sally Smith, and had a programme on BBC WM on Saturday mornings from 6.00am - 9.00am until the summer of 2005 when the show was taken over by Les Ross. James and her family, who live near Effingham, Surrey, have retained a close friendship with Tiswas producer and fellow presenter Chris Tarrant and his former wife Ingrid who live in nearby Esher. She is married to agent and entrepreneur Mike Smith. They have three boys.
