Dishy Lisa Butcher unveiled as the new face (and soft hands) of Fairy
Last updated at 07:27am on 27.03.08As you might expect from an ex-wife of Marco Pierre White, What Not To Wear host Lisa Butcher is not just a fashionista, she's a whiz in the kitchen too - at least when it comes to washing up.
The presenter, who enjoyed a successful international modelling career after winning Elle magazine's Face of 1987, has been named the new hands of Fairy Clean & Care detergent.
The role was first made famous by actress Nanette Newman in 1992, and was then filled by cook Ainsley Harriott and Absolutely Fabulous star Joanna Lumley.

Lisa, who spent a turbulent 15 weeks being married to White, has two children Olivia, 13, and Amber, 11, by her second husband, Chilean polo player Gabriel Donoso, who died in a horrific riding accident in 2006.
The star, who has remained tight-lipped about her current love interest, has previously described herself as a "hands-on mum".
