Thanks Amanda and Hugh

Great interview, Hugh is so highly regarded and rightly so. His knowledge is fantastic and his yearly pocket wine book is fantastic.

Marvellous! I do wish Hugh could present TV even in his golden years. His enthusiasm is infectious. Very fine interview. You let him speak and he clearly wanted to speak to you. Very skilful Amanda.
