Very much enjoyed welcoming guests to Imperial War Museums London yesterday evening for the private view of #Churchill in Cartoons - including several members of the Churchill family, who kindly loaned cartoons for the display. #Churchill150 ✌️

Great to have finally attended the 'Churchill in Cartoons' exhibition at Imperial War Museums London, which I missed due to a recent bereavement. It's a triumph, Allen Packwood Kate Clements Katherine Carter - thank you for the opportunity to have seen your fab vision flourish! On until 23 Feb 2025 😊

It was a pleasure to welcome Her Majesty the Queen to the Charles Dickens Museum, in celebration of our centenary year. The Queen toured the historic rooms, met staff and volunteers and heard some readings by our patrons, Simon Callow and Miriam Margolyes. The Royal Family 👑🇬🇧

“It was really a nightmare – fellows being killed all round, wounded all round…It was an absolute nightmare.” Australian Corporal Fred Haig described landing at #Gallipoli, 110 years ago today. He features in this podcast I made for Imperial War Museums #AnzacDay2025 tinyurl.com/bdcn4rwy

I’ve curated many exhibitions but never thought I would be in one..! Congrats to Kasia Tee & Dan Hancox for their Cursed Objects exhibition about museum shops at the Peltz Gallery. Some of the museum pens which I’ve been collecting since I was a child are featured. Go see it!

Thoroughly enjoyed seeing the new exhibition “Showtime!” at the Dickens Museum at last night’s launch event. It’s filled with amazing objects from the many stage & screen adaptations of Charles Dickens’s works & full of colour. Go see it!
