After more than ten years as a broadcaster and presenter, Sam took to blogging in her spare time. Her blog, fortysomethingfangirl.com explores life in 'Executive Youth' - the space between forty and dead. Its success inspired her to take to the stage. Her second gig, twelve minutes on the bill with Shappi Khorsandi, Dane Baptiste, Pete Firman and Jonny Awsum in front of an audience of 800 confirmed what she had suspected. She is a much better comedian than weather girl.
