Devon People - Lord Devon & Catherine Courtenay
Devon People
Tuesday, 9 September 2025 - 20 minutes
The Earl of Devon joins us on Devon People, as he takes over the editor's chair of Devon Life.
It's just for a month, so the full-time editor Catherine Courtenary also joins us.
Lord Devon's had a seat in the House of Lords since 2019, as one of 92 hereditary peers, and has used the opportunity to speak on constitutional reform of the second chamber, and on why he favours titles being allowed to pass to daughters as well as sons, which now happens for the monarchy.
He has lots to say about education, housing and running an estate like Powderham Castle.
