She first came to prominence as an actress and television presenter alongside Sandi Toksvig, Nick Staverson and Neil Buchanan in the 1980s children’s television show No. 73. This Saturday morning show on ITV, in which she played Dawn Lodge, had a similar premise to that of The Kumars at No. 42 in the way that the show was part sitcom, part chat show and based at a domestic residence. In addition to these parts, the show had the usual mix of music, competitions and cartoons that was in keeping to the formula of British Saturday morning children’s TV of the 1980s. After a couple of years of experience in front of the camera, Arnold realized, “Television was great fun and I went along for the ride, but I never felt that comfortable in front of the camera”.

Her mother and father were teenagers at the time of her birth.
