Philippa Collins (born October 1, 1983 in Hampshire, England) is a British DJ and voice-over artist.

At 19yrs old, whilst studying film and video at University of Surrey, Philippa randomly got a job presenting the evening show on the local radio station 96.4 The Eagle. Less than a year later, whilst still a student at the university, Philippa moved to the afternoon slot on one of GWR's (now GCap Media) flag ship stations 97.6 Chiltern FM in Dunstable. She has since been promoted to drive time and head of music and has also appeared as a contestant on BBC's TV show "The Weakest Link". In 2004, "Radio Industry Magazine" has declared her to be 'one to watch' and, more recently, she has been the main swing jock for the "Graham Torrington's Late Night Love" and Music Control on the The One Network.

Philippa also was the evening show presenter for the national DAB new music station Core for several years. She also temporarily presented the networked radio quiz show "Cash Call" on the "The One Network".

She was formerly the radio station voice of the Galaxy FM network from 2005 to 2008 and London's Magic 105.4 from 2005 to 2007 and presented weekdays between 1 and 4am on London's hit music station Capital 95.8 from July 2007 to July 2008,

Philippa can currently be heard as the network host of mid-mornings from 10am to 1pm across 32 of GCap's One Network stations [ cite web
