Rogers started her television career behind the scenes working as a researcher on shows including Johnny Vaughan's The Fall Guy, The Girlie Show, Absolutely Animals and Light Lunch with fellow researcher Dermot O'Leary. While Rogers was working as an assistant producer and not wishing to miss the World Cup, a friend suggested she audition for the football show Under the Moon on Channel 4. She first starred on Channel 4's The Big Breakfast in June 2000, when she hosted the "Find Me a Weather Presenter" segment. This resulted in an irregular role, which led to later co-presenting, before the show ended in March 2002. She was also the presenter of the reality television showThe Block. Rogers regularly wore large hoop earrings during this period, something that became her trademark. She played the character Tanya in the 2000 TV mini seriesLock, Stock..., a spin-off from the film Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels. From 2002 to 2008, Rogers co-presented the Channel 4 engineering game showScrapheap Challenge alongside Robert Llewellyn. To date, Rogers is the show's second-longest standing presenter, after Llewellyn. The duo also presented the spin-off series The Scrappy Races from 2003 to 2005. In 2003, Rogers also presented the ITVdocumentary seriesMistresses, and appeared as a regular panellist on Loose Women. As of 2008, Rogers has most recently been seen as the presenter of Sunshine for Channel 4, which previewed the new Danny Boyle film of the same name, and as a regular presenter of Sky One's motoring programme Vroom Vroom. In August 2008, what started as a job as presenter of a documentary ended up becoming a polemic about genital plastic surgery, The Perfect Vagina, with her changed status being reflected as "Author" rather than simply "Presenter". In 2009, she reunited with Llewellyn for an episode of his web-based interview series, Carpool. Rogers is also one of eight celebrities chosen to participate in an intense week learning Welsh in an eco-friendly chic campsite in Pembrokeshire in the series shown on S4C in May 2012.

She currently lives in Monmouthshire with her two daughters.
