There ain’t nothing like a Dame …

Judi Dench on rampant form recalling her Shakespeare years to a packed audience. She recited a speech from Antony and Cleopatra and performed a sonnet, all from memory. Heartwarming and funny stuff.

Michael Heseltine (extra) is 91 years old but has a terrific memory, provided incisive analysis, and basically shredded the whole concept of Brexit as being motivated by racism. Remarkable stuff. Natty dresser too.

Shami Chakrabati was also excellent talking about human rights with Rosie Boycott.

Another very good day.
