Description
Yvette joins Genevieve to reminisce about her time presenting the iconic British children's TV show Blue Peter. She recalls her disastrous audition, working with the famous Blue Peter pets, reveals the secrets behind "here's one I made earlier" and opens up about her difficult first year on the show which led her to initially resign.  Yvette also explains why she decided to leave the show, how she and her husband Karl came up with their cult hit ghost hunting programme Most Haunted - and why she considers her TV presenting career is now over. Plus she talks about starting her own record label, her passion for the paranormal and the latest novel in her young adult Ghost Hunter Chronicles series, The Witches of Pendle. **Please note there is some swearing in this episode** =====     Win a signed copy of The Witches of Pendle!
