Phil’s old pod pal Andrew has written a groundbreaking and highly controversial new book on the Yorks - and he is returning to the pod with all the best stories! He’s also going to share just how hard it was to get this book across the line, and the various obstacles put in his way.

This book - for Andrew - is the culmination of years of fighting to get access to royal records, especially financial ones and so to connects to his work on Lord Mountbatten too.
