　　【PChouse】What’s your favourite sports?

　　【Humphry Wakefield】Polo and Rugby Football must be my favourites, but I love tennis and squash too. In the Army I played Polo for my cavalry Regiment, the 10th Royal Hussars (Prince of Wales Own), and for Cambridge University. : In Rugby Football I was Captain of Gordonstoun School but also of their Rugby Team for two years. (Gordonstoun was the school of Prince Philip and Prince Charles). I played Rugby Football Internationaly as a Schoolboy (For Scottish Schools), and ,later for Cambridge University, and for Hampshire County and for the HARLEQUINS which are maybe England’s most famous Rugby Football Club. Riding horses has always been a favourite sport and I competed at highest levels. Now, I love Riding for Fox Hunting and trecking: I was riding in Turkey through snows and ice at 9,000 feet last year, and swimming the horses through wonderful river and wuld really love to ride in China. I much enjoy Bird Shooting and Deer shooting as well.

　　【PChouse】What’s your favourite tourist attraction?

　　【Humphry Wakefield】Maybe Chillingham’s greatest attraction is the beauty of her thousand-year-old stone architecture and gardens against our mountains and fields. I love, our beautiful furniture and paintings and our Musical events. Our most famous attraction is, believeit or not, our astonishing GHOSTS which are truly WORLD-famous. We have been famed for Ghosts for many hundreds of years.

　　【PChouse】What’s your favourite food?

　　【Humphry Wakefield】Occasional Caviar, of course, but also Bacon, Eggs and fried bread for breakfast. That is, of course, until I taste the astonishing variety of new tastes in China.

　　【PChouse】What’s your favourite book?

　　【Humphry Wakefield】William Shakespeare: he has both highest human drama along with beautiful and flowing poetry. I can recite a lot of Shakespeare from memory and that gives my huge pleasure and also sends me to sleep every night to dream well!.

　　【PChouse】What’s your favourite movie?

　　【Humphry Wakefield】“Kind Hearts and Coronets” where Alec Guinness, who I met in America, plays six totally different people, each different personality is an heir to a great Stately Home and each of the completely different characters is played by Guinness. Each of those different ‘Guinnesses’ is murdered by superb actor Dennis Price who plays the very cool villain of the plot.

　　【PChouse】What’s your favourite collection?

　　【Humphry Wakefield】My favourite thing to collect is ‘beauty’! Whether it is Chinese or English, ancient or modern, furniture or painting, weapon or textile, just so long as it is thrilling in beauty. Sadly, art and furniture products of today set out to be ‘clever’ and intellectual and certainly practical with furnishings, but the ‘moderns’ seek out those qualities alone and forget rather the ‘beautiful’ which adds such and extra happiness to life. Former ages had all those qualities of practicality but combined that with elegance and beauty. My intellect is quite sharpened enough with today’s tax returns and politics. I am lucky enough to have wonderful Chinese works of art dating from over the last two and a half thousand years and they blend so perfectly with my collections from Europe.
