00:02 - Hi there, I'm Amy Garcia from BBC Look North,

00:15 and I am celebrating 10 years of presenting the programme.

00:19 Can you believe it's been that long?

00:21 Time flies when you're having fun, so they say.

00:23 And it's definitely been a lot of fun along the way.

00:26 I would say my standout moments

00:28 have got to be the challenges with Harry.

00:32 250 miles on a tandem, we had a lot of giggles

00:36 and sore legs as well, as you can imagine.

00:38 And pushing the sofa with Harry and Paul

00:40 across the region to mark 50 years of regional news

00:43 was also a time I won't forget.

00:45 They were gruelling, they were pretty horrendous

00:48 at the time, but you don't get to do those sorts of things

00:50 in real life, so I grasped those opportunities.

00:53 But also the most special thing for me

00:54 was getting to meet our viewers,

00:56 because that's what Look North is about.

00:58 It's about the people who watch,

01:00 so what a privilege to be able to meet them in person.

01:04 Those are definitely standout moments for me.

01:06 - Pop 'em.

01:11 (laughing)

01:13 Come on, girls.

01:14 This is the one that they've named after me, Dad.

01:17 (screaming)

01:18 Robin!

01:19 We hatched them in an incubator.

01:25 We've got a local farmer who's a friend

01:26 and he wanted to hatch some,

01:29 so he gave us an incubator and some eggs for free.

01:32 He took half and we kept half.

01:34 And this is what came out of them.
