Lady Asquith in conversation with Kenneth Harris
'When we arrived at Downing Street there was only one bath in the house and that was in my father's bedroom. And there wasn't a single bookshelf in the house. Had no Prime Minister ever washed or read, I wondered?' Still perhaps better remembered as Lady Violet Bonham-Carter , Lady Asquith died 18 years ago in 1969. In this programme made in 1967, she recalls Gladstone, her father, Lloyd George and Winston Churchill.
