Barbara Edwards - The 大象传媒鈥檚 first women weather forecaster
Barbara Edwards started giving the weather forecast on 大象传媒 Radio in 1970, moving into continuity announcing on 大象传媒 Radio 4 in 1972. It was back to weather forecasting in 1974, but this time for television, a first for UK broadcasting. Here she recalls the obstacles of being a woman in a male dominated environment, and recalls comments from viewers, mainly concerned with what she wore, rather than what she said.
