## Early life and training

## Television career

**The Real Hustle.** Clement entered public view through the BBC Three factual series *The Real Hustle*, first appearing in the 2003 first series, where she was also credited as a writer.<sup>[3](https://bkso.baidu.com/item/%E6%9D%B0%E8%A5%BF%E5%8D%A1-%E7%AE%80%C2%B7%E5%85%8B%E8%8E%B1%E9%97%A8%E7%89%B9/5467443)</sup><sup> • </sup><sup>[2](https://www.imdb.com/name/nm1883551/)</sup> On the show she was presented as the "sexy swindler", carrying out pseudo-scams over seven years that showed viewers how the general public could be scammed and hustled.<sup>[5](https://www.k9magazine.com/jessica-jane/)</sup> She appeared as herself in 109 episodes between 2006 and 2012, and her own CV lists eleven series of the show.<sup>[3](https://bkso.baidu.com/item/%E6%9D%B0%E8%A5%BF%E5%8D%A1-%E7%AE%80%C2%B7%E5%85%8B%E8%8E%B1%E9%97%A8%E7%89%B9/5467443)</sup><sup> • </sup><sup>[6](https://www.jessica-janestafford.com/showreel)</sup> In a 2012 BBC Three run of the series, *Celebrity Chancers*, she presented alongside regulars [Alexis Conran](https://www.edgepedia.org/alexis-conran) and [Paul Wilson](https://www.edgepedia.org/paul-wilson) with guest participants including [Shane Lynch](https://www.edgepedia.org/shane-lynch) and Sam Faiers.<sup>[7](https://genome.ch.bbc.co.uk/schedules/service_bbc_three/2012-03-31)</sup>

## A name shared with a Canadian actress

The name "Jessica Clement" also belongs to a Canadian actress, born in [Burlington, Ontario](https://www.edgepedia.org/burlington-ontario), who is known for *Dream Scenario* (2023), *Gen V* (2023–2025) as Harper, and *Night of the Reaper* (2025) as Deena.<sup>[8](https://www.imdb.com/name/nm2970078/)</sup> The two are frequently confused: the American model and YouTuber Jessica Clements has noted that people mix her up with "Jessica-Jane Clement, who is an English actress and TV presenter".<sup>[9](https://www.imdb.com/name/nm4829078/)</sup> The English Clement's early credits billed simply as "Jessica Clement", such as *Doghouse*, add to the overlap between the two filmographies.<sup>[2](https://www.imdb.com/name/nm1883551/)</sup>
