An Evening with Prue Leith

British restaurateur, broadcaster, cookery writer, novelist and chef Prue Leith joins us for an evening of sparkling wit and humour celebrating her book Being Old…and learning to love it! in conversation with renowned podcaster and presenter Jo Durrant.

Taking place in the Orangery, adjacent to the Castle Terrace with stunning views of the Cotswolds countryside, this special event is a chance to hear The Great British Bake Off judge and one of the nation’s favourite TV personalities reflect on the trials and taboos of growing older – along with its unexpected joys.

Jo Durrant presents the award-winning arts and science podcast ‘Jo Durrant’s Beautiful Universe’ and is a familiar face at literature, history and science festivals. Jo was a presenter, producer & reporter with BBC radio for over 20 years and interviewed hundreds of people from Spice Girl Melanie C to astronaut Tim Peake.

Tickets for the event cost £35pp and include a copy of Sunday Times bestseller Being Old…and learning to love it! and a glass of fizz or a soft drink before the event. Doors open at 6pm for drinks with the talk following at 7pm with time for audience questions at the end.
