How did she manage that?
Her father was a British journalist covering the launch. He must have brought his daughter along for the historic event.
Her father was a journalist covering the landing and she seemed to have tagged along.
Yes, the best trivia about her is the Neil Armstrong’s secretary bit.
You can hear her talk about it here.
Never seen the Bake-Off show, but love her in QI as a panellist and host.
We’ve also seen her in the travel show Extraordinary Escapes and the antiques quiz show Antiques Master , both of which I thought were somewhat beneath her.
Here is quite a good, if short, interview with her on Australia TV just before this tour started.
I think her travelling down all 1700 km of the Zambezi (some of it in her dad’s old canoe that he erroneously thought belonged to Livingstone) was quite cool too.
Mostly right. He was a danish journalist.
She’s been discharged from hospital but still convalescing in Australia.
That’s good. Thanks!
