Holly Asks Elizabeth Day Her Most Burning Questions!

Expect bubbles, big cheeses and a little bit of magic as Holly welcomes author, journalist and How To Fail host Elizabeth Day for a cheese and wine party in the Together kitchen. Elizabeth opens up about writing her novel The Party while going through a divorce and seeing it become a brand new ITV drama starring Luke Evans, plus what she learned from Prime Minister Andy Burnham as she shares what really happened in her exclusive intimate interview that he described as “therapy”. Elizabeth reveals the ritual she swears found her husband: a list of 85 must-haves, set alight and scattered to the wind. Can it work a third time for our single producer Mel? And don't miss the £8.99 bargain fizz Holly and Elizabeth say you need to get before it sells out this Christmas...
