So this week is absolutely golden in every sense of the word … we welcome the king of knitting & GOLD Olympic award winner Tom Daley to mum's for lamb and dauphinois. The Plymouth born diver talks to us about his Tokyo Olympics experience, his childhood desire to be a pilot, how he met his husband Lance and their first kiss. We chat about the importance of parenthood; losing his dad at 16 years old and the relationship he has with his own son. This really was a treat; a true charmer, our golden boy. We love you Tom! Oh and you might have noticed we’ve rebranded.. Introducing Table Manners with Jessie AND Lennie Ware! Nobody puts Lennie in the corner!!(...and as we also mentioned Jessie has a new podcast out called 'Is It Normal?
