Drew Cochrane: Extended Interview

Shereen

Available for over a year

Shereen talks with Drew Cochrane editor of the Largs and Millport Weekly News. In the cut throat, competitive world of print journalism the job of editor can be a short lived affair. However Drew is currently into his 39th year at the helm of the Largs and Millport Weekly News and is believed to be Britain's longest serving editor. Drew took up the post at the tender age of 22 and in the last four decades he's covered the local stories in the area, and more recently times, got the scoop that saw the world's press descend on his patch. He's now overseen both the 6,000th and 7,000th editions of the paper - but admits he's not planning to be in the chair for the 8,000th.
