Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall reflects on lockdown

The Duchess of Cornwall joins Emma Barnett to undertake her first ever radio guest edit. She reflects on what we’ve all learned about ourselves in lockdown, chatting about safe homes, loneliness, cooking, dogs and everything in between.

Through her charity interests, Camilla discusses what has taken on new importance in the time of coronavirus. She explains how it was “so hard not to hug her grandchildren” when she saw them again after three-and-a-half months, and tells Emma about her prowess as a “silver swan” dancer.
