She'll need no introduction, but who is the most searched-for person on Wikipedia from Street?

The Pudding has created a people map of the UK, replacing place names with their 'most Wikipedia-ed' resident.

This person could be someone who was born in, lived or has connections to the place.

Drumroll please...

According to the map, Street's most Wikipedia'ed person is Helen Chamberlain.

Chamberlain was born on April 2 1967 in Street. She worked as a Bluecoat at Pontins holiday camp and an announcer at Chessington World of Adventures, before becoming a club disc Jockey.

She was discovered at Chessington by a producer for Nickelodeon, where she began presenting in 1994.

She began presenting on Sky Sports' Saturday morning show Soccer AM in 1995. She also guest presented on two former Channel 4 breakfast shows – The Big Breakfast alongside Johnny Vaughan and RI:SE – and was a presenter for Sky TV's dedicated poker channel Sky Poker.

A pub-league level darts player when she was younger, Chamberlain claims to have once beaten Eric Bristow in a game of darts-cricket.

Did you guess correctly?
