The exciting news is that we will be launching this year’s Festival at Waterstones, Piccadilly, in London, at 10.30am on Thursday, 15th March.  We’ve got two of our patrons coming, Countess Rothermere and Antony Beevor, and the Secretary of State for Education, the Rt. Hon. Michael Gove, who is one of the judges of the inaugural Chalke Valley History Prize – more of which in another blog.

Anyway, after a long few months, we now finally have our programme – not quite 100% set in stone, but I’d say 96%.  It’s a pretty stellar line-up, I have to say…
