The quintessentially British Afternoon tea should

The quintessentially British Afternoon tea should be enjoyed by one and all, so @ctb.christina.t.blaney sampled a range to suit everyone from home delivered to high street bistros.

She said: “It’s one of those things that feels special and a real treat. It’s a simple meal really, a few sandwiches and cakes, a couple of scones and a pot of tea. But just like Anna, the seventh Duchess of Bedford, I think we should make it a regular habit.”

Culture Editor @bespokenbeyond talks to @ali._mic

Culture Editor @bespokenbeyond talks to @ali._michael about his career, one man show Catching Comets and his involvement since the start.

Here’s an extract:
“Can you tell us about your current show: CATCHING COMETS? What drew you to the show and how does it feel to be in a one-man show?
I have been involved with this show from its inception. The writer/director and I run a company together, so he came to me when he had the initial idea, and I was instantly on board. At that stage, it sounded like it had the potential to be a beautiful compact play. Also, we’ve been working together for over 10 years and we always have fun, which is a huge draw.”

Skincare lover @stylelis enjoys a luxurious facial and learns why SPF is so important at @storyclinics in Marylebone.

She said: “I was then given a gorgeous serum before moving on to one of may favourite parts, which is a Crystal Fibre Sheet Mask and it’s taken straight from the fridge which makes it so nice and cooling. When I was done I nipped over to the ladies room and obviously had a peek and I looked absolutely glowing and I swear I saw less lines!”

Actress @mayabritto_ is returning to the role of Iva Toguri in Tokyo Rose at
@burntlemontheatre and @swkplay , Editor @bespokenbeyond interviews her about the role and returning to the stage.

Here’s an extract:
What is the most rewarding thing about your work?
“I think it has to be the people I get to meet. Whether it’s working with them or if they’re in the
audience, they’re often all kinds of people that I may not have otherwise met. If it’s in a show, you can get to know people very quickly and very intensely but it’s for a relatively short amount of time. When I think about it, it’s strange how readily vulnerable we allow ourselves to be.”

With a hip, modern industrial vibe, @mikkellerbrew

With a hip, modern industrial vibe, @mikkellerbrewpublondon serves 20 different craft beers on tap and bottled brews.
@dinehard enjoys a couple of pints and gives us his verdict.

He said: “They’re simply a brewery that makes really delicious beers. Sure, there’s a few more extreme, experimental things for those that want such things but, for the most part, the range is very approachable indeed.”
