@rebeccalfo5ter @YouTube @therosebudpod Thank you x 3!

[Gyles Brandreth @GylesB1]

We three. Gyles. Harriet. Alec - visiting @YouTube HQ in London to chat about @therosebudpod (you can catch our big interviews there now & soon there’ll be more). Harriet is our producer. Alec is our YouTube editor. I’m me.

One of us turned 38 today. And it wasn’t me.

Making Waves by Mark Graham

When international rock stars
Converge upon a place
One might imagine sound and lights
Will then the venue grace
But on the isle of Easdale
Aside occasional groans
There’s little to disturb the peace
Just people skimming stones

I’m not sure where we were or why we were there, but it was exciting to find my friend Susie Dent behind a curtain in what seemed to be a sauna somewhere in Bethel Green… No one knows more about words than she does & no one is more fun to be with!

@JohnGrugan Friday on This Morning…

[Gyles Brandreth @GylesB1]

It's quite easy to be mellow when you are pampered from dawn till dusk... I know how blessed I am.

[Gyles Brandreth @GylesB1]

I don’t really enjoy a good cry, but I was frequently moved by the stories Patricia Hodge shared during this week’s episode of #Rosebud.

As you'll know if you watch or listen to Rosebud regularly - @GylesB1 loves a good cry... and this episode moves him to tears more than once. When he asks Patricia Hodge for her secret to maintaining friendships over the years, the answer breaks him.

[Gyles Brandreth @GylesB1]

Gyles, Joel, Cat, Cam, Ben … larking about at @thismorning just now … next stop the @therosebudpod studio with Harriet at @GrosvenorHouse on London’s Park Lane … and then an evening with @susiedent … my kind of happy day!

[therosebudpodcast @therosebudpod]

We're so lucky. That's because on Rosebud we get to talk to some of the best, most brilliant people in Britain today. And today's guest epitomises this: she's got talent, class, elegance, style and a certain type of Englishness. It's Dame Patricia Hodge.

[therosebudpodcast @therosebudpod]

You'll be shocked to find out that the great actress Patricia Hodge wasn't allowed to perform in the school play, because she wasn't "clever" enough. So @GylesB1 is moved when he hears how Pat and her friends finally managed to catch the eye of their English teachers.

@Chris1Howie Thank you so much!

[Gyles Brandreth @GylesB1]

This lovely lady saw me in my favourite independent bookshop yesterday and, on the spur of the moment, decided to buy one of my Victorian murder mysteries!

I love an indie bookshop!
