The Curious House Guest - BBC2, just been on.
Discussion
It was all about Castle Leslie in Ireland.
What a gent 89 year old Sir Jack Leslie is, not only a walking encyclopedia on his family history, a living link to family members who knew Charles Dickens. He likes to spend his nights in the local disco dancing the night away, the night club is even called "Sir Jack's". He seemed to enjoy the foam. :)
He even showed the camera team his tombstone that he's had made up already, placed in the family plot next to this other family buried there.
His family run the house now as a country house hotel, hence the wedding parties and guests such as, Sir Paul McCartney's wedding and frequently visited by the likes of Royalty and other names like Mick Jagger over the years.
