Mail Obsession: A Journey Round Britain by Postcode with Mark Mason

Mark Mason talks about his book 'Mail Obsession', in which he unearths at least one piece of trivia from each of the UK's postcode areas, from AB to ZE. He discovers what the Queen keeps in her handbag, why the Jack Russell has a white coat and how Jimi Hendrix got confused by the M1. He also explores the history of mail in general, including Oscar Wilde's unusual method of posting letters.
