...can't remember her name, but she was Australian and she was interviewing Terry Pratchet, who had brought a telescope along with him for something to talk about presumably.
She asked him what it was for and he replied that he was a keep astronomer. She replied, "Oh! So what star sign are you?", he, ever the professional, replied "Well, you know Astrology and Astronomy are two very different things. I like to study stars and planets."
Her: "I see. So...what star sign are you?"
She clearly couldn't see the difference.
Makes you wonder if she thought Patrick Moore and Russel Grant are the same person.
EDIT: Sarah Vandenbergh was her name.

I used to carry something of a torch for her.

I have to admit it, I did too.
I dreamed once that she'd been kidnapped and I saved her - I think it was around the time she went off with a religious cult in the show.
...but when she was presenting that morning show, she was dreadful. Worse than Fiona Philips and Kate Garraway put together.
