For ten years he was the Sunday Telegraph's television critic and one of its chief feature writers. \r\n\r\nHis latest novel, 'A Very English Scandal', tells the story of Jeremy Thorpe, former leader of the Liberal party, and sadly famous for being the first British politician to stand trial for murder. BBC 1 announced an upcoming three-part television miniseries based on the novel, with Stephen Frears as director and Hugh Grant and Ben Whishaw for the leading roles.\r\n\r\nRecorded at The Tabernacle in London in April 2018.\r\n\r\n5x15 brings together five outstanding individuals to tell of their lives, passions and inspirations.
