Domestic and international affairs

Episode 253,   May 25, 2022, 08:44 AM

Mike Parry and Lesley-Ann Jones discuss: the release of LAJ's new book, Vangelis, becoming a nervous wreck when talking to the Royal Family, whether the Queen is in good health, the Ukrainian refugee who broke up the family she was staying with, attending international film festivals as a journalist, meeting Roger Taverner, Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe, releasing Brits abroad from oppressive regimes, Don Powell's recent issues, Scandinavian countries, Eddie 'The Eagle' Edwards, democracy, how Paul McCartney lost his mum at 14, songwriting genius, the story behind the worlds most expensive war medal, and Everton in the 1950s.

It's the podcast that's as sweet as a toffee; it's Life on Planet Porky.
