And for many, starting to use Zoom was, shall we say, a tad intimidating.   Then, we got used to it and suddenly we’re loving it.   But now, after all these lockdown months of Zooming family and friends…what’s left to talk about? “So, what have you been up to?” “Ironed my socks.” How long 40 minutes can seem when,12 months on,you are hunting for fresh conversation with the people we love and…

I made a very brief appearance in ITV’s Secrets of Your Christmas Dinner last night.
