Carol Kirkwood on finding love in your fifties, TV mishaps and leaving the BBC

NEW SERIES: Award-winning presenter and Countdown lexicographer Susie Dent discovers life lessons from living legends. 

Carol Kirkwood spent 28 years bringing the weather into Britain's living rooms, becoming one of the BBC's most beloved presenters and a nine-time TRIC Award winner. But away from the forecasts, she's built a second career as a bestselling novelist and found love again in her fifties.

On this episode of Experience is Everything, Carol joins Susie Dent to talk about finding love later in life, accidentally taking a photo of the King's nostrils, leaving the BBC after nearly three decades, and knowing when it was finally time for a new chapter.
