Charlie Rose Show
30-minute conversation with the veteran American tv host aired on Thursday Dec 14, 2006. At the time of writing this can be found here.
Jancis Robinson's Wine Course
The multi-award-winning 10-part TV series shot around the world of wine with some of its most famous characters is shown regularly on BBC World and on various PBS stations in the US. For more details of how to obtain the DVD, click here.
Uncorked with Jancis Robinson
Six 30-minute programmes shot around Italy in 2002.
Vintners' Tales
Two series of 10-minute profiles of wine trade luminaries such as Michael Broadbent for BBC2. The second, 1999, series was much garlanded.
The Wine Programme
Three series (six, seven and six 30-minute programmes) for Channel 4 originally shown in 1983, 1985 and 1987 but, amazingly, shown at least in part in Australia in 2005!

You may also catch my voice if you enjoy documentaries, particularly historical biographies, although narrated documentaries are now a dying breed, as are narrators with accents as relatively posh as mine. One week in April 2002 I recorded commentaries, for three different UK TV channels, on three men in a closet: comedian Frankie Howerd, erstwhile leader of the Liberal party Jeremy Thorpe and ice skater John Curry. Subjects of films I have narrated include Florence Nightingale, Hitler's Women, Olga Korbut, Billie Jean King, Lee Strasberg and the Royal Opera House (the original fly-on-the-wall series The House).
And
here is an interview with me on Grape Radio, recorded in California in Sep 2007.
