In late 2023, my daughter pressganged me into appearing on Pointless. You can tell from our podium picture which one of us did not want to be there...
But if you fancy a laugh at our expense please do tune in on Valentine's Day, BBC 1 5.15 and see if we managed to avoid national humiliation!

HP's Christmas was my first ever Christie. I was dumbstruck by the solution. Very much a favourite still.

Lady Killers with Lucy Worsley - Lady Swindlers with Lucy Worsley - 39. Ann Mary Provis - Art Hoaxer - BBC Sounds Lucy Worsley meets Ann Mary Provis, an audacious art hoaxer in Georgian London.

All over Britain, the nation's top historians and audio producers are feeling anxious. The weather's bad, the travel news is worse - will they be able to make it to today's #LadyKillers Christmas lunch in London??

CAT ADVISORY: With temperatures remaining uncomfortably low and #StormBert on its way it's important that you find the warmest spot in the house and stay there. Tell your humans to keep the second warmest spot free in case you want a change of scenery.

It’s release day for this beautiful anthology. I’m so excited to have a short story alongside these amazing authors.

The D20s are a group of authors who all debuted during lockdown. We have stuck together through ups and downs.
