A DOZEN QUESTIONS - 8 OF 12 - SPECIAL GUEST: LYNETTE FAY



A DOZEN QUESTIONS
(8 OF 12)

The Pivot Questionnaire comprises 10 questions. I have seen it used on the television show Inside The Actor's Studio, presented by James Lipton. Apparently Proust was the original inspiration. The modern questions originated on a French TV show called Bouillon de Culture, hosted by Bernard Pivot. I have expanded the questions to 12.

(For the time being, this idea is restricted to Northern Ireland's creative artists in any field, literature, music, broadcasting, etc. If you are one and are interested in taking part as well as promoting your work, please get in touch via joecushnan@aol.com)

This post’s special guest is broadcaster Lynette Fay. Lynette is from County Tyrone, a graduate of the National University of Ireland, Galway, and sits on the Governing Authority of Dublin City University. The natural warmth and personality of her voice can be heard on BBC Radio Ulster where she presents Folk Club on Sundays and The Lynette Fay Show on Saturday nights. She co-presents the TV show Opry with Daniel O’Donnell on TG4.
