I’m a journalist, so it’s usually me doing the interview.
However, I have also been interviewed a few times. I think footage of me being interviewed by Andy Crane on shortlived Manchester tv station Channel M might even still exist on the internet somewhere. Also, I once made the front page of a Norwegian newspaper called the Harstaadt Tidende.
I was vox popped outside Victoria station the day after the 7/7 bombings, and again by some German news channel next to Nelson Mandela’s statue in Parliament Square the day he died. I am confident neither interview aired, due to my utterly uninteresting contributions to each debate.
Got interviewed by local TV leaving a Bruce Springsteen gig. Unclear if I ever made it to air.
Interviewer: “what makes Bruce so special?”
Cosh: “… Because he’s The Boss!”
Cosh’s drunk cousin (who would have no recollection of the event next morning): “what’s going on? Can we get more pints now? Does she have a carry out?”
