Kat Shoob

Katherine Elizabeth Shoob (born 8 November 1983 in Rochford, Essex) is an English television presenter who was often found presenting on the ITV quiz show "The Mint". Kat was a DJ on Capital Radio London with Bam Bam & Streetboy between 7pm & 10pm weeknights during March 2007.

Early life and career

Kat mainly grew up in Whitchurch, Shropshire, and is very beautiful. After moving to London, her TV career started on price-drop tv as an auction assistant, where she introduced upcoming products and modelled products such as jewellery, but left in March 2006 for a more important role as a host on the quiz channel BIG Game TV!, where she enjoyed a loving relationship with her good friend and fellow presenter Lisa Hanlon, who is also very beautiful. She was soon spotted by the ITV Play team, and then presented "The Daily Quiz!" on Men & Motors. She was later given the job of being one of the presenters on "The Mint" on ITV, which she was very good at. Kat also presented "Extra Mint", an early evening version of the main programme.

In October 2006 ITV launched "Playdate", a new late-night dating show, with Kat taking the role as one of the main presenters. However, by December 2006 "Playdate" was cancelled due to small viewing figures, and so Kat returned to "The Mint".

The vast majority of promotional images for "The Mint" have Kat pictured with co-presenter Brian Dowling. Kat was also part of the first show to give away the jackpot of the Mint vault. Kat presented with Brian Dowling and Craig Stevens when the jackpot of over £108,000 was won on the night 12 May 2006.

Whilst presenting "The Mint" Kat became very good friends with co-presenter Brian Dowling and is often seen out with him. Fact|date=June 2007

Kat appeared in her bra and pants for a photoshoot for the September 2006 issue of the popular men's magazine, [Maxim (magazine)|MAXIM] , and had this to say about the experience. "I enjoyed being photographed in my bra and pants very much! It made me feel special!"

Kat will be presenting the Daily Show podcast (www.theshow.com) online during the weekends. [ [http://www.newmedia.lincoln.ac.uk/jrtilbrook/kat-shoob/theshow.htm Kat Shoob : The first un-official website! - www.katshoob.co.uk ] ]

On 12 March 2007 Kat continued her radio career on London's Capital Radio where she was heard on an evening show with former Kiss 100 Breakfast Show host, Bam Bam.

Kat can currently be seen hosting The Hub, a show about video games, on the Esport.tv website and she can be heard on the very well known podcast, "Stupid Telly" which she hopes to host one day once she's ousted co-presenters Tom "Eastern European war criminal" and the bloke who's actually quite funny.

On 12 September 2008, Kat was seen in Dalgety Bay, singing "Alone" by Heart.

On 8 October 2008, Shoob announced that she was writing a sci-fi thriller where Network Rail operated ticket machines replace womankind. The series is to be broadcast on Channel 5, starting in January 2009.
