Journalist and broadcaster Melanie Phillips discusses her autobiography Guardian Angel with Matthew Sweet, which reveals details of her unhappy and stifling childhood and her relationship with her fragile mother. Through the prism of this family story, Melanie also explains her dramatic transition from the darling of Britain's liberal left, to the Daily Mail's star columnist and reflects on why she felt it was important to tell this very personal story.
