THE Pursuit Of Love has thrilled viewers with its look back at the decadent world of filthy-rich toffs indulging in sex, drugs and wild partying between the wars.
But incredibly, the key characters in the racy period drama are based on REAL people.

ALISON BOSHOFF: The bonkers baron whose life was a pursuit of hedonism


The bonkers baron whose life was a pursuit of hedonism: He inspired the wildest character in the BBC s new drama, but from dyed doves and dogs in pearls to riotous parties, Lord Berners was even barmier, writes ALISON BOSHOFF
The 14th Baron of Berners was a true bon vivant of the early 20th century who entertained everyone from Salvador Dali to Evelyn Waugh
He made such an impression on Nancy Mitford that she based Lord Merlin, the outrageous aesthete in her 1945 novel The Pursuit Of Love on him
Berners adored pranks and practical jokes, and once even placed an advertisement in The Times newspaper offering two elephants for sale ....

The homes and interiors of the Mitford sisters

In a parallel world, the aristocratic Mitford sisters might have set up a highly profitable decorating business. Exhibit A is the transformation of Chatsworth by the late Deborah Cavendish, Duchess of Devonshire, née Deborah Mitford, from a dark, unlived-in temporary school - the state rooms became dormitories during the Second World War - into one of the finest country houses in England, where simple clay pots of geraniums enlivened rooms furnished with antique treasures. Exhibit B is the trailer for Emily Mortimer’s upcoming BBC adaptation of Nancy Mitford’s 1945 novel
The Pursuit of Love, with a line-up of stars including Lily James, Dominic West and Andrew Scott - and a wealth of covetable interiors, from a gilt-drenched, mirrored drawing room to a gold-tiled Art Deco bathroom. ....

Nancy Mitford on the home of the real 'Lord Merlin'


This article is a tribute to an artist, musician, wit and kindly host.
When Mr. Wood of Bath built Faringdon House, about the middle of the 18th century, his customer was Poet Laureate Pye (generally supposed to have been the worst poet laureate England has ever had and described as eminently respectable in everything but his poetry by Lord Byron who, of course, knew all about respectability). Pye ordered the house to be built, and Pye paid the bill, established himself there, wrote reams of dreary long-forgotten verse in praise of his master George III, and brought up his dreary long-forgotten children beneath its roof. But I believe that Mr. Wood, gifted with second sight, saw 200 years beyond the laureate and built it specially for Lord Berners, its late occupant. For those who were lucky enough to be friends of the lord and therefore visitors to his house, he being the most hospitable of men, found it impossible to think of one without the other; so much of a piece, bo ....

HUGO VICKERS discusses Diana's racy dress and more delicious gossip from his scintillating diaries


When Hugo Vickers was commissioned in 1980 to write the authorised biography of Cecil Beaton, he was granted privileged access to the photographer’s friends and staff and all his private diaries and letters.
Many of Beaton’s circle had been the ‘Bright Young Things’ of the 1920s. Others were louche aristocrats, renowned former beauties, movie stars and writers, not to mention Princess Margaret and the Queen Mother.
By then in their 70s and 80s, most welcomed the chance to gossip. Over the next five years, Vickers asked them about everything from Cecil’s homosexuality to his extraordinary costume designs for My Fair Lady and his bizarre love affair with Greta Garbo. Many of their recollections duly appeared in Vickers’ best-selling biography. ....
