Five years ago, the beloved and I were in a reality show. It was called Everyone’s a Critic, and featured a carefully selected cohort of demographics. The show took us all to art galleries, mostly in Melbourne and Sydney, plonked us in front of some artworks carefully selected by the production team, asking us to say what we thought of them.

Agatha Christie s wartime stay at the Isokon flats - with fur coat, hot water bottle, and pillow over her head to drown out the blitz - is explored in a new exhibition.
Despite having homes in west London, Oxford and Devon, the famous crime writer and her Sealyham terrier James spent 1941 to 1947 living in a 25 metre square flat in what was advertised as the safest building in London.
An exhibition opening on May 22 reveals how she enjoyed a prolific stage of her career, writing novels, stage plays, a memoir and radio play for Queen Mary s 80th birthday - which later became The Mousetrap - while living in Britain s first apartment block made from steel reinforced concrete.
