Take an exclusive first look inside our August issue, the Winter Food special, with cover star Joanna Lumley.

COVER STORY: JOANNA LUMLEY

From Bond girl to perennially inebriated Patsy, Joanna Lumley hasn’t missed a beat in her career. At 70, she’s back on the big screen as half of the Ab Fab duo, having as much fun in real life as she does with her raucous character.

WINTER FOOD SPECIAL

From spice blends to warm the soul to hot and zesty recipes that will fill your life with flavour, MiNDFOOD brings you more than 60 pages filled with delicious delights and smart eating ideas.
