Dear Allen,
Many thanks for the link to the FT article - but one has to be a subscriber
(which I am not) to be able to view it.
No doubt there will be stories with free access in some of the other quality
papers.
Best,
A.C.

This just sent to me by Sotheby's summarising the press coverage of the
Lady Soames story....
You've probably seen/listened to the various BBC links already, but here
they are just in case:
Today programme main story:
https://audioboom.com/boos/2543660-the-churchill-legacy
Stories on BBC website:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-29528472 (on offers in
lieu) flagged on their home page http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/
And on the sale (with fabulous video of Emma)
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-29483047
An FT story has also just gone up (it should be in tomorrow's paper). It
makes it clear that the offer in lieu is not yet a done deal, which is
helpful:

We're also expecting a piece to run on South East TV News at 6.30
tonight, as well as stories in the Telegraph and Mail (and possibly
Times too) tomorrow. I will send through links/scans in the morning, and
we'll also try and find a link to Allen's piece on BBC radio Oxford
(thank you Allen!)
And finally, Jeremy just flagged Jonathan Jones' piece on the Guardian
website. The opening paragraph made my heart stop - but it gets better
as you read!

Dear Mr Heydel,
Many thanks - very informative.
Even better - the BBC website has a video of Emma Soames showing and
commenting upon the Fishpond mentioned by David Coombs in the Radio 4
programme :
