The walls have ears at Trent Park, the former north London residence of Sir Philip Sassoon, one of the wealthiest men in England during the 1920s, a close friend of Winston Churchill and Royalty who had served as an MP and Under-Secretary of State for Air. This imposing former stately home also has an interesting Czech connection.
The Royal Albert Hall ('RAH'), probably the world’s most famous stage that opened in 1871 under the vision of Prince Albert, earlier this year launched another act as part of its ‘off-stage’ line up - the Secret History Tour. The tour, which takes visitors behind the scenes, unearths details on the many eccentricities and oddities of this iconic London venue. One can even take afternoon tea after the tour with a champagne option!
