Now is a big fan of Stacey Dooley and her hard-hitting TV shows. Stacey, 30, first rose to fame fronting Blood, Sweat And T-Shirts back in 2008 – a documentary that saw her travel to India to investigate the horrific conditions in sweatshops. After its success, the Luton-born presenter put together her own series of docs and she’s now a staple over on BBC Three, looking into issues as far-ranging as sex trafficking, abortions and gun crime.

Now Stacey’s back with a seriously shocking new show, looking at just how easy it is for youngsters to buy drugs on apps like Snapchat – more about that later.

Stacey found time while busy filming in Northern Ireland for a chat with Now – and she was an absolute dream. Amiable and direct, we can see why people in tricky situations often choose to open up to her.

While usually one to keep her private life just that, she does, however, open up to us about life with her live-in boyfriend Sam, 29, and lets us in on exactly what she gets up to when she’s in Ibiza with her pals…

Hey Stacey! What are you up to in Northern Ireland right now?

I’m filming a documentary on the DUP [Democratic Unionist Party – currently in a parliamentary deal with the Conservatives]. Everyone’s very lovely here, actually – I’ve just been here in Belfast and they’re all very sweet. People come up to me and tell me they’ve been watching my documentaries.

What do you as a stress buster when you’re not filming?
