Episode 4 of 8

Elizabeth Blunt, one of the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ's first female foreign correspondents, joins Colin Blane to share stories from her remarkable career.

We now take it for granted that the world of journalism is populated with flack- jacketed Kate Adies and Orla Guerins so it seems extraordinary to think that it was actually only as recently as 1986 that the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ first employed women as foreign correspondents. Elizabeth Blunt was one of those first female journalists. Colin Blane catches up with Liz in London on a rare break away from her beloved Africa where she still reports and where, in the course of her career, she became so famous a school was named after her.
