Career

Kirkwood joined the BBC's undercover reserve in London after graduation. She appeared on BBC Radio Scotland, then BBC Radio Scotland, and then BBC Radio 2 and BBC Radio 4. She left the BBC and then worked as a training consultant for a management consultancy in Cheshire following her marriage to Jimmy Kirkwood. She and Sacha Baron Cohen spent time on a now defunct cable TV channel in Windsor, later referred to as Wire TV.

Kirkwood returned to the BBC as a freelance presenter in 1993, where she also hosted a bi-monthly program on HTV West. Kirkwood started with The Weather Channel in 1996, but after it was closed, she underwent training under the Met Office's direction before joining BBC News in April 1998 as a weather presenter. She has since been on both radio and television, including BBC News, BBC World News, BBC News at Six, and live forecasts as part of BBC Weather's coverage of the Wimbledon Tennis Championships.

On BBC Breakfast, Kirkwood is the main weather presenter. In 2013, the service moved from London to MediaCityUK in Salford, but Kirkwood stayed in London, presenting the weather on Breakfast via video link. She appeared on The Weather Show of the BBC and is also a regular contributor and reporter for The One Show. Kirkwood co-presented The Great British Weather on BBC One in 2011. On BBC Radio 2's The Chris Evans Breakfast Show, she also forecast the weather.

Kirkwood has appeared on CBBC's Hacker Time as a guest. Would I Lie to You? Kirkwood made a cameo appearance on Hollyoaks in October 2018.
