Amy Fallon
Amy Fallon is an Australian journalist who has worked in London for the past three years. She grew up in Murwillumbah and before moving to the UK worked for Australian Associated Press in Sydney.
Amy spent most of her first year as a reporter in London door knocking council estates in the rain - and in heels – leaving her with frizzy hair and wrecked shoes. A highlight includes chasing Pete Doherty after a court appearancewhere outside court she noticed he was eating a sausage roll. She has still not solved its origins.
She have travelled extensively, including six trips to Africa.
