Ceri Worman was born in Wales but moved to England at the age of three. Her family originally moved to Oxford but when Ceri was seven they settled in South Yorkshire, where Ceri was teased because of her "posh southern accent".
After gaining a History degree from Hull University, Ceri worked as a librarian for various London libraries, where her "broad northern accent" was ironically mocked!
After a stint as an English teacher in south London, Ceri moved, with her young son to South America where her "English accent" went unnoticed. Her attempts at Spanish however did not go by without the odd giggle.
