Prue Leith: Being Old and Learning to Love It
3pm | 3pmWith her characteristic wit and no-nonsense charm, Prue Leith takes a spirited canter through the triumphs, challenges and surprises of ageing well.
She speaks with refreshing honesty about life as a modern woman in her eighties. Nothing is off limits: from beauty, staying active and finding fame on The Great British Bake Off, to friendship, family and the occasional regret. She tackles the big questions we all have about getting older – about time running out, dealing with grief and her passionate belief in assisted dying – with the same frankness she brings to discussing finding love, the right time to retire, fashion, travel and gardening.
