“I'll have spent most of the day before the match doing some preparation. That's a little bit like studying for your exams. You need to know the personalities involved, what the stories are surrounding the game and how they've come into this game. You do a lot of preparation. I like to go in knowing more than I need.” KnowsNeedsLittlesStoriesGamesBitsKnowingStudyPersonalityInvolvedLittle BitPreparationExamKnowing More Author:Jill Douglas
“On the day of the game you get there quite early, about 10 o'clock for a 3 o'clock kick-off, because you do a little bit of filming early on. You need to meet the crew and they need to have time to get a cup of tea and all those things the crew like to do before they go out filming.” NeedsLittlesGamesBitsLittle BitCupsTeaClockKicksCrewCups Of Tea Author:Jill Douglas
“You've given it some thought, you've tried to prepare as well as you can, but you're reacting to what you see so you can't really prepare that much. It's purely live broadcasting which is very nerve-wracking but hugely rewarding. The game finishes and eventually, maybe an hour later, you're all finished.” WellsGamesGivenHoursFinishedNervesReactingBroadcasting Author:Jill Douglas
“TV depends very much on the pictures that you see on your television, and all the other things that come up on the screen, whether it be GFX, the studio or the pictures of the game.” GamesTelevisionTvsDependsCome UpStudiosScreens Author:Jill Douglas
