It was such a pleasure having the incomparable Martin Amis talking with John Wilson for this in 2013. Like all guests he had no idea what archive we’d chosen but engaged with good grace , profound insight and a wealth of wonderful stories.
Happy 90th birthday to my wonderful dad Gerald Kingsley whose capacity for kindness, friendship, wisdom, musical insight and knowledge is only equalled by his capacity for drinking vast amounts of tea every day. Thank you for everything, you’re amazing xx❤️
