I think she has been given the award of "Dame", but declined. This would demonstrate her realness, although she OBE

He did a good job as the interviewer. I've watched a few Joanna interviews , but always ended up wondering what the real Joanna was like. I think here, you could get just a glimpse. She is adorable, but I reckon there is a hint of iron not far under the surface.

Pity that there are no captions in Netflix - I just wanted to congratulate Joanna on he execellent series on the Silk road especially Persia in the rotunda reading poetry.

I've always agreed with everything Joanna says but I disagree about university. I cherish my uni days, I learned sooooooooooo much and had such a fun time. I would never give that up.

21:28 Me!👋🤦‍♀️😆 Had to go back to my freshly buried grandfather's grave to pick some of the gorgeous white casket arrangement roses for family to save. Forgot to remove my 6" heels not that that'd have saved me. (6" stilettos on my 6' tall self=monstrously TALL lol) I believe it had rained sometime that week. Needless to say after fully extending myself to get at one last specific rose my grandmother wanted, next thing I know I was sinking. And not just upto my ankles....to my hips sooo a good 3+ feet into my grandpa's grave. Every curse word in the book was rapidly coming out of my mouth after which each curse word I'd say "Sorry gramps I take that back" and repeat! THANKFULLY the cemetery was fairly close to the farm and so a few of my uncles came back and hauled me out sans shoes and half of my dress. Pretty sure I lost my thong too. Also meant EVERYONE at the post burial lunch 300+ people, heard me swearing & apologizing like an idiot, coming back covered in mud missing most of my clothing. 😅 Very little scared me back then or now but regardless of me being okay with death, being able to laugh about it over the year's....tis NOT something I'd recommend.. Joanna Lumley...QUEEN! Always such a beautiful, delightful, intelligent person and inspiration! Love her travel adventures as much as AbFab. I need all of my favorite books read to me with her equally incredible voice. Not that you'll ever see this however thank you for all you've done. And hey,,I can forever say that I did a Patsy falling into a grave!

Actually Richard Coles seems like the ideal man to interview such a fascinating person as Joanna. Look him up on wiki, he has lived a remarkable life and he’s an intelligent educated and very compassionate person. Having discovered him today I intend to read his two-volume autobiography.
