Career

Rickers presented Up On The Roof between 2002 and 2005. In 2005, Rickers began presenting Toonattik on CITV. On 6 March 2010, it was announced GMTV children's presenters Anna Williamson and Rickers would be made redundant. Their last broadcast aired on 9 May 2010.[2] Rickers and Williamson also presented a show on Nickelodeon titled Jamie & Anna's Big Weekend.[3]

When their stint on Nickelodeon came to an end, Rickers moved away from presenting to focus on pantomime. At one point he was also a consultant for global and foreign exchange client Vlopper. He then sold face masks via his twitter account.
