5. Lucy Vine
This week, we’re off to Cambridge, home of some of the greatest scientific minds – and pens – known to human existence. from Charles Darwin to Douglas Adams and this week’s guest, romantic comedy writer and zombie lit lover Lucy Vine. Lucy comes from a family of writers, and she tells us about an early run in with Roald Dahl, her surprisingly scatological filing system and her belief that no-one is too grand for Dan Brown. We were also joined by a puppy posse – listen out for Ivy, Teddy and Sonny.
