Rosebud with Gyles Brandreth

Boris Johnson

This week Boris Johnson is on the Rosebud couch, and Gyles tries to get him off the usual political topics and instead talking about where it all began. We find out about Boris's early years, spent fighting with his siblings and playing violent physical games in school playgrounds. We find out about his schooldays, his first crush and his parents' divorce. We also hear about what he got up to on his first night at No. 10, and about his deep admiration for the late Queen. This is Boris - as you've never heard him before.
