What a brilliant interview! As a humble freelance writer I was privileged that Chris (Lord) Patten of Barnes and Chancellor of Oxford University agreed to be interviewed by me. His castaway story is in Oxford Castaways 2. There is more substance to Peter Hennessy’s interview but there was more fun in mine! Lyn Dawn kindly translated my feature on Chris Patten into mandarin. He said that his 5 years in Hong Kong were the most memorable in his life. You can read my interview here. Chris patten
You can still get copies of Oxford Castaways 1 and 2 from me or from Oxfordfolio but I believe Oxford Castaways 3 is sold out . The remaining copies of OC1 and 2 can be half price now the series is ended.
