(Picture: Dave Benett)Welcome back to the Londoner’s Diary. First up we learn that Prince Philip would “bark” at the artist when he was having his portrait done. Later on Oliver Ford Davies tells us even though he won an Olivier award, it was an audience member who gave him the biggest bit of validation, Paterson Joseph recalls the moment he thought he’d be fired from Peep Show and Nigella Lawson says she has had to stop taking hot sauce with her everywhere after an unfortunate accident. In our SW1A today we hear Larry the Downing Street cat has been involved in a scrap while Liz Truss seems to be picking a fight with her Australian counterpart who she’s called “inexperienced”.
