The summer issue of Silver Digest features an interview with our cover star Dame Helen Mirren as she returns to the small screen in her new role as Catherine the Great. Another of our armchair-reading treats is an excerpt of octogenarian adventurer Julia Albu’s memoir of her madcap trip from Cape Town to Cairo in her 20-year-old Toyota Conquest. The rest of the issue is packed with everything from travel ideas for the year ahead to advice on health and finances, and, just for the festive season, a big splash in our décor section showcasing a serene and sensible philosophy to surviving the silly season.
