We're broadcasting a special interview never heard before with the creator of Crossroads, the pioneering female TV executive Hazel Adair. Ashley Byrne conducted Hazel's very last interview and met her son Charles Marriot back in 2015. Hazel's memory wasn't what it had been but she did remember plenty of key points from her long career in radio, tv and film. There's a few surprises along the way as Hazel talks about making several TV breakthroughs including the very first female focused soap.
Enjoy!
