About me

I loved the idea that it wasn't about how much money you had but your chances of getting a slot were just the same if you were world famous and a millionaire as if you were just an every day sort of person.

I feel really privileged to have this opportunity so I want to do something that celebrates what's fantastic about lour world and what I love - different cultures and different languages so I'm hoping there's a mike as I'd like to say "Good Morning London" in as many different official world languages as I can in an hour. If there's no mike I'll try and get hold of a megaphone.

I work in education so I'm going to ask some of the schools I work with in Leeds if I can learn how to pronounce the languages from their pupils who have over 70 languages between them.

I'm really excited and looking forward to my slot!

  • I got hit by a flying chocolate bar with a message saying 'Peace on Earth' - how ironic. But seriously - what a laugh!!! Well done.

  • HELEN, YOU WILL NEVER CEASE TO AMAZE ME!! XX

  • Helen,

    shabash, khub bhalo, chomotkar (great, very good and wonderful - in Bangladeshi).

    You even gathered a crowd and had audience participation. Agree about the throwing though!

  • Dear Helen O'Pemberton,

    Absolutely brilliant!!!!!

    I do think for next time a bit of practice with the throwing would be beneficial ....
