Saga Magazine

1 January 2023

In this month’s issue… Happy New Year and welcome to your January issue of Saga Magazine, which we hope finds you well. This month, we’re kicking off 2023 with war correspondent, newsreader and Mastermind host Clive Myrie on our cover. As he prepares to return to Ukraine to mark a year since the war with Russia broke out, he talks to us about risking his life for his job, globetrotting with his wife and the reason why he turned down Strictly. We also catch up with Jayne Torvill, who chats about Dancing on Ice, her telepathy with Christopher Dean and how her husband Phil often gets called Chris. Have you made any New Year resolutions? If fitness is top of your list, how about giving paddleboarding a whirl? We meet Shilpa Rasaiah, who took up the sport at the age of 58 and a year later was paddling almost 170 miles to raise money for charity. Or why not give your mental health a reset? We show you ten brilliant ways to be more positive in 2023. In a packed issue, there’s also inspiration both at home and away with beautiful bright bathroom ideas, comforting pasta recipes from Heston Blumenthal, an Inca-redible journey to Peru and some great cost-saving long-stay getaways. From our regular columnists to a lowdown on cooking gadgets and e-readers and features on health, money, gardening and beauty, as well as puzzles and our pub quiz, there’s plenty of entertainment and information in your magazine. We hope you enjoy it.
