Q&A
What is your biggest news story? I interviewed Nava Mau, star of Baby Reindeer after going to the Netflix premiere. It was pretty big due to the series being such a success.
What’s the best car you’ve ever driven?When I lived in Denmark I drove a Renault Zoe, it was the first time I’d driven an electric car and the first time driving on the opposite side of the road. I loved how smooth and quiet it was, especially when driving on the motorway. It was the safest I’ve ever felt in a car, I’d love to drive it again.
What will the car industry look like in 20 years?Hopefully a lot more like Back to the Future. I do think there will be a huge rise in electric cars and hopefully there will be a few more Cars movies to reflect the changes.
