Onstage with Queen @annie.nightingale at the V&A in 2016, discussing her extraordinary life and career. It was always a such privilege to interview her (whether it was here, for @bbc6music or @bbcradio4 #DesertIslandDiscs – her episode is on @BBCSounds) but an even greater privilege to be supported and encouraged by her through the years. She was the same with all of us who followed her, I think. Thank you, Annie – for opening the door and for showing us all what to do when we got through it. You will be missed so much.
