What was your first job as a journalist?

I was a TV listings production journalist with The Press Association in the UK.

Have you ever used a typewriter?

Yes, though not in my journalism career - in my misspent youth, writing my first book. It was awful (the book, not the machine).

What's the funniest news-related #hashtag you've seen?

I've seen too many to pin down just one.
