Description
In this episode we talk to everyone’s favourite sports presenter, the brilliant Kelly Cates. Football is well and truly in Kelly’s DNA because her father Kenny Dalglish is a world-renowned football player and manager.   Kelly tells us about ditching a maths degree to work at Sky Sports, becoming one of the UK’s first female sports presenters and shares what it’s like to broadcast live from one end of the kitchen table while her daughters eat pasta at the other end.   In 2016 Kelly presented a moving documentary about the Hillsborough football stadium disaster.
