I can’t believe that Jeffrey Archer - who was always so alive - is suddenly dead. We had a wonderful day together yesterday - as anyone who was there will tell you, he was in brilliant form on stage yesterday celebrating the publication of his 50th and final best-selling novel.

Happy #BlackHistoryMonth. I adapted my book ‘Coming to England’ for the @BBC to celebrate our history and it won an @RTS_media award back in 2003. So proud. Hope you enjoy watching the film it was made with love @CBeebiesHQ share.google/mQ0R2nGfeOLHAaB…
