About this episode
Yes, we know it's secretly your favourite part of Rosebud... it's Gyles's diary! And we know we say this every time, but it's another corker. Gyles does something unspeakable on Edward Heath's shoes. He has to chaperone an out of control drunk Irish poet. He meets Sir Gerald Nabarro, Malcolm Muggeridge and Leonard Woolf. We hear his sister Hester's fascinating account of working as a psychiatric nurse, and we hear Gyles's thoughts on turning 21 (clue: he's underwhelmed). Plus Gyles and Harriet discuss how to tell a good anecdote, childhood bereavement, and swearing. NB this episode, unusually, does contain a few swearwords, apologies. Enjoy this, diary fans...
