  • Summary

  • In this episode of my podcast I get to talk about two of my great loves - words and language.

    My guest Susie Dent is an English lexicographer, etymologist, and the word referee in "Dictionary Corner" on the TV game show Countdown since 1992.

    Susie is also a bestselling author having written many books on the English language including her latest which is aimed at children, "Roots of Happiness: 100 Words for Joy and Hope".

    I was delighted she agreed to join me as a guest on my podcast here at the real Downton Abbey.......
