Carol Vorderman LIVE! Numbers, Politics, and Finding Her Voice

Carol Vorderman LIVE! Numbers, Politics, and Finding Her Voice

Carol Vorderman is best known as the queen of Countdown, but there’s far more to her than just numbers. From growing up in a single-parent household to becoming one of the most recognisable women in British television, her journey has been anything but ordinary.

In this episode of Full Disclosure, James O'Brien explores Carol’s path from excelling in mathematics to navigating the world of television, her deep passion for education, and her outspoken activism in politics. With strong views on social justice and a fearless approach to calling out inequality, she shares how she found her voice.

Unfiltered, passionate, and refreshingly honest, Carol opens up about the power of speaking out and the causes closest to her heart.

This episode was recorded at Leicester Square Theatre to raise money for charity Make Some Noise. You can find more information about the charity here
