She also co-presented the BBC's coverage of the total solar eclipse of August 1999. At the end of the same year she was also part of the corporation's team covering the turn of the new Millennium, and was duped into appearing on the spoof documentary Brass Eye's notorious 2001 paedophilia special, in which she wore a large pair of gloves, and explained how a paedophile could use them to touch children through a screen, such as a television screen.[1]

She has appeared in television adverts for Lloyds Pharmacy[2] and supports the Recycle Now campaign to encourage more people to take up home composting.[3]

In 2007, she co-produced with her husband An Otter in the Family, a short documentary series about the adoption of an otter cub called Grace and their attempts to raise her as a wild animal in order to be released into the wild.[4] She is a co-presenter with Brett Westwood on World on the Move, a BBC Radio 4 series that started in 2008 on migration in the animal kingdom.
Forrester is married to wildlife cameraman and producer Charlie Hamilton-James[5]. The couple live just outside Bath, Somerset, run Halcyon Media which specialises in wildlife productions, and have three sons. The arrival of the first, Fred, in 2000, is described in her book the River.

She is an avid environmentalist[3] and took a part-time degree in Ecology and Conservation at Birkbeck, University of London when presenting Tomorrow's World. Her love of nature conservation has continued throughout her life and she is now the vice-president of the Avon Wildlife Trust. Phillipa also holds a degree in English from the University of Birmingham
In 1996, Philippa Forrester became the first non-employee of Electrolux to demonstrate the Electrolux Trilobite prototype.
