00:00 Hi, I'm Laura Reid, the Deputy Features Editor at the Yorkshire Post. I just thought I'd

00:05 come on to talk you through some of the features that we've run online and in print this week

00:09 in case you've missed them. We've of course got our Yorkshire Post magazine published

00:14 on Saturday as part of our weekend edition as well, so lots more features and long reads

00:19 to come there too. So this week we've been running a Deck the Halls special series, going

00:25 behind the scenes to look at Christmas preparations at some of the region's stately homes. So

00:30 as part of this we've looked in detail at Harewood House, Treasurer's House, Burton

00:36 Agnes Hall, Castle Howard and Chatsworth House. We've also looked at how a new exhibition

00:43 in Leeds is shining a light on the vital role of migration for the health service, telling

00:48 the stories of migrant NHS workers in the region. And we spoke to Marks and Grant, who

00:55 wrote some of the top television comedies of the 1980s and 90s, ahead of their stage

00:59 adaptation of Cluedo next year. We shared Yorkshire Polo Diag actress Eleanor Tomlinson's

01:06 thoughts on the new Channel 4 thriller The Couple Next Door, in which she stars. And

01:12 we heard from a Clackettan gardener, Peter Fawcett, as he releases a new book, looking

01:18 at his experience and memories over the years. And finally we spoke to a Bram Stoker scholar,

01:26 Matthew Gibson. He told us a bit more about Whitby's link to Dracula and talked about

01:32 his own debut Gothic novel, which is inspired by Stoker himself.
