It’s Monday 31 March, Anna Foster’s first day as a Today presenter, and she’s not in W1. She’s in Thailand, in Mae Sot, on the border with Myanmar, reporting on the 7.7-magnitude earthquake. (Nick Robinson is in the rather cushier seat in Salford.) Foster’s opening link features a clip of a pre-recorded interview she’s done – “The aftershock,” says a survivor, “is the whole town is in panic” – and later in the programme she talks to people on the ground, as well as experts trying to get aid into the right areas. The earthquake only took place a couple of days previously. She’s been working hard.
