Victoria Derbyshire was initially told by the BBC that she couldn’t take part in ‘I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!’.

The 52-year-old broadcaster had to get permission from the network before participating in the ITV contest and though she was initially rejected, she then went to see head of BBC News Fran Unsworth and even offered to take unpaid leave so she could be on the show.

She recalled to Sunday Times magazine: “I said, ‘I’ll take unpaid leave. I’m not going to cross any lines of impartiality. I’m not going to bring the BBC into disrepute.’

But the area where Fran conceded was when I argued that BBC News wants to attract diverse, young, less affluent people and this is the show they all watch.”

One of the main reasons why Victoria took part in the show is because her sons Ollie, 16, and 14-year-old Joe — who she has with radio producer Mark Sandell — are big fans.

She said: “It’s one of the only things we watch together as a family apart from ‘Strictly’. They thought I’d be really good at the trials because they know I get stuck in, but most of all they love the fact I was in it because all their mates watch.”

The presenter is “really gutted” that her self-titled show was axed earlier this year but admitted she hopes there are other opportunities in the pipeline.

She said: “I’ll go back to the news; that’s what I love, interviewing people. I want to keep thinking about how to engage the underserved audience, which is what our old programme did, engaging people who don’t think that the BBC is for them.

“I’d like to do a podcast on breast cancer, and maybe an intelligent quiz, something fun.”

And Victoria won’t rule out taking part in another reality show.

Asked if she’d consider ‘Strictly Come Dancing’, she said: “I’ve never been asked, but yes I would consider it.”

Victoria Derbyshire has been using a wig after losing her hair during her chemotherapy sessions for breast cancer.

The 46-year-old journalist, who was diagnosed with the disease last July, has admitted she’s struggling to deal with her thinning mane and has been reliant on fake locks during her presenting gigs over the past month in a bid to hide it.

Speaking a video diary, recorded six days after her second round of treatment last month, the talented presenter slipped off her brunette wig to reveal her thin tresses, before turning to the camera and saying: “I’m finding this hard.”

She added: “One of the things that I’m finding difficult to come to terms with is losing my hair.

“I would say I have lost about 30–50 per cent of it.”

The thought of wearing a wig previously “horrified” Victoria and she believes losing her hair affected her more than undergoing a mastectomy to remove her breast.

But she has since come to terms with it and now feels “comfortable” wearing the locks over top of her real hair.

She said: “When I started wearing a wig a few weeks ago I didn’t tell anyone at work I was wearing one, because I needed a little time to adjust to it myself. I can confirm I’m now fully adjusted to it and so feel comfortable in being totally open about it. The point is it lets me crack on and get on with things — which is absolutely great.”

The occasional ‘Newsnight’ presenter — who underwent cold capping twice in a bid to prevent her hair from falling out — has three chemotherapy sessions and a series of radiotherapy left before her treatment ends in the spring.

The mother-of-two — who is planning to share her experience through her video diaries — suspects she’ll lose even more of her hair and has also started to lose parts of her eyebrows.
