Cox won her first television show role in 1994, presenting early "Girl Power" show The Girlie Show. She later had stints on Channel 5 entertainment show Exclusive and Channel 4 music programme Born Sloppy. During this period she appeared in photo spreads for UK 'lads mags' such as Loaded. In 1997 Sara presented on the UK feed of MTV, hosting MTV Hot a late night music show. In September 1998 she landed a role as a presenter of The Big Breakfast, following in the footsteps of her friend Zoe Ball (Cox was to be a bridesmaid at Ball's wedding to DJ Norman Cook aka Fatboy Slim in 1999). During her time on The Big Breakfast she interviewed such stars as Robbie Williams, Sting and Leonardo Di Caprio. However, unlike Paula Yates's famous "On the Bed" interviews, Cox preferred to do interviews in her dad's caravan which was situated in The Big Breakfast garden.
