The One with Jilly McCord

from The LGBT Sport Podcast · host BBC Radio Cornwall

She wowed viewers across the UK as she made her way to the final of Masterchef - but before that, Jilly McCord excelled in a very different way. The Scottish schoolteacher represented her country on the rugby field - playing at the 2006 World Cup and eventually captaining the national side - and combined it with life as a school-teacher. And all of that was BEFORE the whirlwind of Masterchef, which took her right around the world. So, we had plenty to talk with her about - and we really, really enjoyed having her on, talking about everything from LGBT role models to finding out you're going to skipper your country while in the Tesco carpark. And Jilly, you can make us a pasty anytime! WANT TO FIND OUT MORE ABOUT OUR GUEST? Twitter: @jillymccordcook WANT TO GET IN TOUCH WITH THE SHOW?
