A Commonwealth Farewell with Baroness Scotland

Gyles Brandreth & Aphra Brandreth

In this special final episode of the Commonwealth Poetry Podcast, Gyles and Aphra Brandreth are joined by Baroness Patricia Scotland, the outgoing Commonwealth Secretary-General. As they reflect on nearly 70 episodes celebrating the poetry, culture, and voices of the Commonwealth, Baroness Scotland shares her insights on the power of the Commonwealth and the enduring strength of poetry. Featuring Maya Angelou’s Still I Rise and Psalm 23, this episode marks the end of an extraordinary journey—at least for now. Thank you for being part of the adventure!
