With nearly 60 years of unparalleled access to world leaders - and lunatics - John will explore the personalities that have shaped history. From notorious figures including Putin, Assad, Saddam, Mugabe, and Gaddafi to admired leaders such as Gorbachev, Mandela, Havel, and Zelensky, he will reveal their common threads, unique quirks, and lasting impact.
In an increasingly volatile world, John will also examine the most pressing challenges of our time - war, famine, economic crises, and climate change - to reveal how the actions and decisions of leaders, from despots to visionaries, have shaped these crises and continue to influence our world today.
In the second half, the floor is yours. Ask your questions as John offers sharp insights into past and present events, with no doubt some focus on Trump and the shifting global order.

Grand Opera House York
Not originally intended to be a theatre, the buildings that comprise the Grand Opera House York officially opened in 1902 with Little Red Riding Hood starring Florrie Ford. Since then it has been owned by FJ Butterworth, the Shepherd of Shambles and the India Pru Co. Ltd who spent £4,000,000 restoring the theatre to its former glory in 1987.
