Information

Last year the reign of the Queen of Newsnight came to an end and in April, the Queen of Reporting Scotland abdicated. In an event unique to the Borders Book Festival Kirsty and Sally talk about their decades at the helm of two long running news and current affairs programmes. Prime Ministers and First Ministers came and went while these two superb broadcasters chronicled the politics and culture of Britain and Scotland. What went wrong, what went right – and what are their feelings looking back on a period of unparalleled change? An unmissable event.
