she was one of 3 women on the Friday Sports Panel hosted by Eleanor Oldroyd, in reference to some impending Sports Women of the Year award.

Fairly "generic" sports talk (ie. not MTB specific).

She didn't come across as a smart arse, nor was she the most natural or eloquent of them.

agreed, but the other two are privately educated, academic high achievers, she didn't make a fool of herself as just a regular lass. IMO for your average person, it's quite difficult sounding eloquent when under pressure, I thought she did OK. Considering she's probably always revolved in quite a different world to Lizzy Yarnold, I got the impression they had to politely ask them to shut up from chattering in the background. Altho I get the impression that LY would get on with almost anyone, she's that nice.
