Jenny Powell (born birth date and age|1968|04|08|df=yes in Ilford, London), is a British television presenter. She attended Woodford County High School for Girls in Woodford Green.

Powell began her career in 1986 presenting the BBC2 music programme "No Limits" and then moved to Saturday morning television for children, first co-presenting "UP2U" for BBC One during the summers of 1988 and 1989, and then CITV's "Ghost Train". In the mid-1990s, she became the hostess on ITV's version of "Wheel of Fortune".

More recently, she has presented Soap fever, "Live Talk", "Getaway", and "Our House" for UKTV Style. She tried to make it as a stand-up comedian in Granada Television's "Stand Up Jenny", and was a regular on ITV's "Loose Women". In 2005, she was one of the competitors in the ITV reality TV show, "Celebrity Wrestling", competing under the name, "The Avenger".

In 1997 she appeared on Channel 4's "Brass Eye", a satirical spoof documentary show produced by Chris Morris. She talked earnestly about the perils of 'heavy electricity' and warned that the south of England could be catapulted towards Finland if people did not bang on wires with hammers.

Powell has recently started presenting on BBC One's "To Buy or Not to Buy", and on 11 June 2008 made her debut on ITV's Bingo Night Live.
