Sue Perkins speaks to Ruth Wishart at the Edinburgh International Book Festival
After her sell-out Book Festival appearance in 2016, beloved broadcaster Sue Perkins is back to take us all East of Croydon. Her new book charts her odyssey through South East Asia; a journey which took her along the great Mekong River through Thailand, Cambodia and beyond for a BBC series. Armed with ‘zero practical skills’ but a limitless supply of wit and cheer, Perkins’s experiences make for hilarious stories which she shares in this event recorded live at the 2019 Edinburgh International Book Festival. Chaired by Ruth Wishart.
