  • Stephen Fry: Part Two
    Apr 15 2021

    Join us for part two of our fascinating conversation with the eternally wonderful Stephen Fry.


    Hear his recipe of choice for the ultimate eggs (move over, Chef Ramsey), and the best answer we’ve ever had to our regular question: what’s your most joyful memory when it comes to a meal?


    And if you didn’t catch the first half of Stephen’s chat with our host Felicity Blunt, we wholeheartedly recommend giving it a listen after this episode has finished. It’s not one to be missed.

  • Stephen Fry: Part One
    Apr 8 2021

    On this episode of Fortnum's Hungry Minds, we have a very special guest joining us. He’s a writer, an actor, comedian, director, quiz show host, activist – we could go on. And on.


    In short, he’s a living icon. 


    We’re thrilled to have him on – it’s the one and only, Stephen Fry.


    In this first of our two-part episode, Stephen and host Felicity Blunt discuss a predictably wide range of topics – from Zeus’ little known sister, and Stephen’s love of cooking, to a brief history of tomatoes, and the souls of animals.

  • Julius Roberts
    Apr 1 2021

    Our guest this episode is Julius Roberts – a first generation farmer who swapped the rat race for an idyllic life of pigs, goats and chickens instead.


    Having previously worked at the acclaimed Noble Rot in London, Julius left the city to start a farm in Suffolk. On his journey towards self-sufficiency, he’s amassed over 90,000 followers on Instagram and was named by The Times as “one of the best farmer foodies to follow”. 


    Julius joins Felicity to discuss his journey from studying sculpture in Brighton to accidentally buying 17 goats, what a typical day on the farm looks like and whether he misses anything about life in the city. 


    Be warned, this episode may tempt you to quit your job and become a farmer.
