Let's make this birthday one to remember.

70 years old (Born on February 03, 1955)

Happy Birthday, Kirsty Wark! From grilling politicians to charming royalty, your fearless interviews have become legendary. Whether calmly questioning prime ministers or gracefully chatting with British royals, you've shown us all how it's done—always poised yet never afraid to ask the tough questions.

Here's hoping your birthday is as memorable and delightful as that iconic Newsnight moment when you effortlessly navigated tricky conversations without breaking a sweat. May this year bring even more fascinating stories and fewer awkward silences (though we secretly love those too). Cheers to another fabulous year of journalism brilliance—and may the cake be royally delicious!
