Dear Reader,
|
Thank god for Jilly. Entering the world of Jilly
Cooper is like sipping a caramel latte with a shot of whisky (divine).
It’s a tub-thumping read of the finest social commentary that is
wicked, sexy, funny and clever yet also supremely loveable. The action
takes place in Rutshire – a thinly veiled Cotswolds – and I cannot wait
to dive, not this time between the pages, but into the small screen as
the hotly anticipated Rivals comes to Disney+. I’m assured there
are things that will make us blush (hooray) and that nothing’s been
booted out in the name of political correctness (double hooray). One of
the screenwriters, Clare Naylor, takes us inside the Jillyverse – and everyone is welcome.

Have a great week.

Space Goes
Luxury

white – and for it to spawn a stratospheric catwalk trend.
