I rate this interview as ***** (inspirational, excellent)
"I felt I learned a lot about Kirsty from her interview. She came over as being fun to be with and interested in sport both as a player as well as a commentator.
Kirsty's memories of going to St Andrews to watch her Dad play golf in her summer holidays, paints a picture of happy family holidays and a nice childhood. It is clear that Kirsty has some very happy memories of being a Brownie and her memory of baking cakes is one which I can certainly relate to, as I am sure most girls who have been in Brownies will be able to do.
I didn't expect her to say that she would choose Oscar Wilde's diary to read. I would have thought she might have chosen someone from the world of sport or fashion. It was no surprise that Kirsty was interested in fashion. She works in the glamorous world of TV and because of her job, she must be constantly influenced by the ever-changing world of fashion that surrounds us all.
I was surprised that she was so keen on sprinting because she seemed to like to be in a team, yet sprinting is such an individual event.
Her tastes in entertainment are very people-centered. She enjoys meals out with her boyfriend and close friends. Clearly she likes to meet people and to chat with them. Kirsty seems like a very interesting and sociable person."
