Times journalist Ann Treneman talks about her book of the ‘dead interesting’ and introduces some of the best graves to visit in Britain. Treneman visits the graves of the real War Horse, of Byron and his dog Boatswain, of prime ministers, kings and queens, Florence Nightingale and her pet owl Athena, and of the real James Bond and M. Finding the Plot is made up of 100 stories that are sometimes humorous, sometimes poignant, but all of which tell something about the British way of death.

Treneman is best known for her hilarious parliamentary sketches for The Times. She is one of the strongest female voices in the parliamentary lobby and is also author of Dave & Nick: The Year of the Honeymoon and Annus Horribilis: The Worst Year in British Politics.
