Saga Magazine

1 November 2022

Hello and welcome to November’s Saga Magazine. We hope this issue finds you well. This month we catch up with Blondie legend Debbie Harry, who is still rocking in her seventies. Fresh from her latest US tour, the singer chats about her closeness to ex-boyfriend and band co-founder Chris Stein, her trademark blonde hair and sharing a dressing room with David Bowie. We also meet the man nicknamed ‘Indiana Jones of the Deep’, who discusses his latest underwater discovery, and we step inside the poppy factory where iconic remembrance wreaths have been made since the early 1920s. Following the sad death of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, Jenni Murray pays tribute to the ‘matriarch of the royals’, while journalist, historian and author Peter Snow looks at what we can expect from King Charles III – and how he compares to some of our previous male monarchs. Ever heard of pickleball? No, neither had we – but it’s a sport with such an unusual name, we had to give it a go. Read about how we got on. You’ll also find Bake-Off judge Prue Leith’s tasty toast recipes, a step-by-step guide to crafting your own Christmas wreaths, and top tips for helping cut car crime. Plus, don’t miss our regular columnists Jeremy Paxman and Susie Dent, health advice from Dr Mark Porter and the latest money news from Paul Lewis. And, if you’re looking to test your brain power, you’ll find our monthly puzzle pages and pub quiz too. We hope you enjoy reading it. Hello and welcome to November’s Saga Magazine.
