Veteran presenters Zoe Ball and Jenny Powell may be approaching their 40th birthdays, but the pair seem to show no signs of ageing as they flaunt their impressively slim physiques.

Powell, 39 has only recently returned to our screens, but it seems that the extra time in the studio has not left her short of time to work out.

The former Wheel of Fortune presenter, showed off a figure usually seen on someone half her age, as she strolled along a beach in Barbados.

Meanwhile, Ball, 37, hit the beach in Mauritius with her seven-year-old son Woody and DJ husband Norman Cook during their Christmas break.

She seems to have left her ladette image firmly behnd her which has seen her famously pictuured wearing a Stetson hat and swigging from bottles of Jack Daniels.

Instead, that has all been swapped for a titcy black bikini which showed off her curvy, feminine figure, free from any sign of her hellraising days.

Powell is now hosting property show To Buy or Not to Buy, which it is a far cry from the more glamorous shows which helped launch her career.

But she too has taken time off to fly out to the Caribbean with her family and join a host of other high-profule showbusiness stars who have opted for a Christmas break in the sun.

Looking tanned and healthy in a miniature bikini, she barely looked as if she has aged at all from the moment when she first burst onto our screen in 1995 as the bubbly side-kick of presenter Nicky Campbell on Wheel of Fortune.

And it now seems she is determined to keep up with other keep-fit celebrities such as Desperate Housewives star, Nicollette Sheridan.
