This was such fun to do…

Rob Rinder chose Jessica Mitford (me as ‘expert’). Total joy to talk Mitfords with Rob and Matthew Parris, produced by the very lovely Nicola Humphries

Agatha Christie (plus me) on Channel 5

Agatha Christie: 100 Years of Poirot and Miss Marple was shown on C5 on October 10 at 8:30pm – still available to watch! – and is also on Britbox in the US.

I was a contributor talking about Agatha’s ten best books. Filmed it at home at the height of summer. Really enjoyable to do.
