Hi Andy,
I don't think it's appropriate for us to call out the BBC for mispronouncing her name, but perhaps we can find another way to show the value of the voice recording?

I think we should be a bit more clear and just say:
Adventurer Sarah Outen has just completed a round-the-world trip under her own power. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sarah_Outen
Does this look OK to other folks?
No. It does nothing to explain the benefits of the voice intro project ("#WikIVIP"), which was the purpose of my tweet.
