A pretty special (and rather long) post for you al A pretty special (and rather long) post for you all today after I appeared on @gmb this morning, sharing best practise tips to keep your children safe when sharing back to school photos this week and next. It was a pleasure to join cybersecurity expert @jakemooreuk in the feature, who I learnt a lot from too! I realised before appearing that I’ve been a contributor on the show for over 11 years, presenting back to school tips segments, appearing in possibly hundreds of debates over the years relating to breaking news pieces and even covering Harry and Meghan’s royal wedding in Windsor! I’ve shared (some) photos here from over a decade along with my experiences and tips for anyone who might fancy being on the box too. Here’s to 11 years (and more) please!!
