Show Notes
Rosie Boycott, now Baroness Boycott, reaches the parts that other peers can't reach. She is guaranteed to hold strong views on a variety of subjects from food waste to feminism, from obesity to domesticity, to motherhood and marriage, to the environment and the legalisation of drugs. A true opinion former, she cut her editorial teeth as co-founder and editor of Spare Rib magazine before moving on to becoming editor of Esquire, The Independent and The Daily Express.
A self-confessed recovering alcoholic, a smallholder, a literary guru and a committed traveller, Rosie discusses her passions and reinventions with host Catherine Fairweather in our seventh episode of The Third Act.

In this inspiring episode, legendary British fashion designer Zandra Rhodes reflects on her extraordinary journey from art college to international acclaim. She recounts the pivotal moment a meeting with Vogue editor Diana Vreeland opened the doors to success in the United States, and shares the story behind founding the Fashion and Textile Museum — a lasting legacy celebrating creativity and design. With candour and characteristic optimism, Zandra speaks about the role of instinct, resilience and hard work in shaping her career, as well as her refreshing philosophy on ageing and experience: “I don’t think we should live with regrets. We’ve got to think it was a bad decision and hope that we can regroup to make the right decision.” A thoughtful and uplifting conversation, this episode explores creativity, courage, and what it truly means to live a life well lived.
