Timeline
Elizabeth Jane Barker (born 16 May 1975) is an English television presenter, best known for her work on Blue Peter from 2000 to 2006.
Born in Cambridge, Barker grew up in the village of Oakington, near Cambridge and attended Impington Village College before undertaking a philosophy degree at the University of Southampton.
After this was completed, she became a runner for independent production company Lion TV, a researcher, and eventually the sports presenter for BBC Choice programme Backstage.
On 23 June 2000 Barker joined the children's television programme Blue Peter.
During her six years on the programme she reported from Vietnam, Morocco, Brazil, Austria, Greece, India and the U.S. Her adventures included an inverted spin in a jet, lawn mower racing, paragliding, walking a circus high-wire, cleaning windows at London's Canary Wharf tower.
She won a bronze medal in the two-woman Bob at the British Bobsleigh championships and once held the Guinness World Record for putting on a duvet cover.
She interviewed top celebrities, including David Beckham, Quentin Blake and Elton John, whom she presented with a Gold Blue Peter Badge in Las Vegas.
She also raced former Formula 1 World Champion Lewis Hamilton at go-karts.

On 25 May 2004 Barker announced that she was pregnant with her first child, by husband Michael Todd.
A boy, Dexter Jack Barker Todd, was born on Saturday 4 December 2004 and featured on the show many times, including at just 13 days old, on his first birthday and on Barker's leaving date.
She was replaced by Zöe Salmon, who originally took Liz's place in December 2004 when she had her baby.
She became the first presenter to rejoin Blue Peter after having a baby, but on 23 January 2006 she told viewers that she would be leaving the programme at Easter and moving away from London so she could spend more time with her family.
On 11 April 2006 Barker left the programme with a special This Is Your Life-style show devoted to her, featuring former presenters, family, friends and people she had met along her Blue Peter travels, including Kitty Hart-Moxon.

On 18 September 2006 it was announced on Blue Peter that Liz was due to have another baby and on 20 February 2007 it was announced on Blue Peter that she had given birth to a girl called Poppy.
She has since given birth to Rocco Winston Todd in 2011 and Gus Lennon Todd in 2013.
After she left TV Barker spent several years working for her family's chain of bakeries.
