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. Has no Prime Minister ever washed or read, I wondered?"

Still perhaps better remembered as Lady Violet Bonham Carter, Baroness Asquith will be eighty on Saturday.
In this programme she recalls luncheon with Mr. Gladstone when she was six... talks about her father, who became Prime Minister in 1908... about Lloyd George who succeeded him in 1916... and about Winston Churchill whom she first met as a girl of nineteen and who until his death remained one of her closest friends.
