Award-winning presenter and queen of morning television, Lorraine Kelly  discovers life lessons from living legends.  Anne Robinson is one of Britain’s most recognisable TV presenters. She started off as a journalist on Fleet Street in the 1960s before moving into television in the 1980s. Then in 2000 she became the host of a new game show that earned her the nickname the Queen of Mean on The Weakest Link. Known for her icy-cold demeanour, she is sharp and direct, unapologetic and formidable. But behind the fame and the fearless persona, the story is more complicated. Success doesn't come easy and Anne has faced her own battles. On this episode of Experience is Everything, Anne joins Lorraine Kelly to talk about losing custody of her daughter at the age of two; having a relationship with the Queen’s ex, and whether she really is the Queen of Mean.
