The Last Word - Zara Janjua
Trend Magazine|August/September 2017

To borrow a phrase much used in her native Glasgow, Zara Janjua comes across as pure dead brilliant.

The Last Word - Zara Janjua

The sparky 32-year-old is not only an Aberdeen-based roving reporter for STV2’s Live at Five teatime show, but is also creating waves on the stand-up comedy circuit. For starters, how about appearing with Joe Pasquale on the stage of the Playhouse in Edinburgh?

I met her on the STV premises at Pavilion 3 of the Craigshaw Business Park in deepest Tullos, close by wall-to-wall car showrooms. It’s a far cry from the elegant West End boulevard of Fountain hall Road where was housed STV’s late-lamented predecessor, Grampian TV. My nerves shredded with fear, I used to join the sports presenter and former boxing champ Frank Gilfeather for live chat on Scotland’s chances in the Five Nations rugby, but my twitching left shoulder got more attention than any words of wisdom. How do TV reporters manage to stay so cool?

Snow Fun

Head outdoors with the kids for some fun in the snow this winter. Building a snowman in the garden, a full-on snowball fight or sledging down the nearest hill can provide hours of fun. If you’d rather stay on piste, then head for either Glenshee or the Lecht, assuming the roads are open.
