00:04To announce the winner, I'm incredibly honoured to welcome Her Royal Highness, the Countess of Wessex.
00:11Ma'am.
00:12Good evening. Thank you so much for having me.
00:15It's been wonderful to watch all of the winners receive such wonderful accolade for their work.
00:20And having been part of the judging panel, having read all of your citations,
00:26it was really hard to select the Women of the Year.
00:29And it is a huge honour to be able to open this wonderful gold envelope
00:35and to announce that the Women of the Year 2020 is Beth Marie Norbury Babcock.
00:45Congratulations, Beth Marie.
00:47This is a very well-deserved award and our heartfelt congratulations to you.
00:52Well done. How do you feel?
00:53I think I might cry.
00:56I think that's allowed.
00:59Thank you, Your Royal Highness.
01:01I was completely not expecting to win my category, let alone Women of the Year.
01:10So I'm delighted and I hope that I can live up to all the achievements
01:17that all the other Women of the Year have achieved.
01:21You have some wonderful examples to follow.
01:24So this, I hope, will be winging its way to you in the very near future.
01:30But it's a huge honour to be able to present it to you.
01:33Congratulations and really enjoy the moment.
01:35Thank you so much, Pam.
01:41Thank you so much, Pam.
