Jan receives a call from Miss World and upsets Sacha Distel. A strange phone call puts plans on hold for a return to Australia and Jan gets married to Patrick Lunt. Then her popularity on BBC News forces her to make a serious career decision.
"I was offered a year's contract to read news... If I accepted the year's contract then I had to give up my 'staff contract' status with radio. It was all heady stuff and there really was no choice. I went for the 'big time', accepting the insecurity of a contract."
She recounts, with affection, her years reading BBC News and her memories of Eurovision 1982 which she presented live to over 300 million television viewers around the world. Royal Variety performances, I've Got a Secret and singing live on the Russell Harty Show.
