BBC Ideas Festival

It was fascinating to be on the New Age of Sentimentality panel with Lisa Appignanesi and Rachel Hewitt at the BBC ideas Festival in Newcastle, famed for it’s bridges, it’s a surprisingly elegant city. The festival was brimming with great talks and ideas. Both Lisa and Rachel are really interesting writers. Also nice to hang out with Kehinde Andrews in the green room whose a chilled, very funny guy. I did other bits and pieces there which I can hopefully share soon.
