Listen "Des Kelly: say yes to opportunities"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode, we welcome along the one-and-only Des Kelly, Chief Reporter and interviewer for BT Sport.
Award-winning columnist; national newspaper editor; radio presenter; TV presenter - it’s fair to say that Des has had one hell of a career. As we’ll hear, Des’ stellar career in the media wasn’t a given - growing up in south London, he originally thought that he would become a teacher. But after an introduction to a local newspaper when at University, Des soon realised that journalism was to be his true calling in life. Des’ career has gone from strength to strength and he freely admits that he never had a plan. He just said yes to opportunities that excited him.
