I spent four hours in Paddy Cosgrave’s company this week. Having ruminated on the assignment, I decided the question I wanted to try and answer was: “Is he knowable?”
That is to say, clearly, the 39-year-old multi-millionaire has a personality — he has a wife and child, a second son on the way next year, and a formidable business empire. But is it possible for the public to know him better? Or does he only give out what he wants to?
