The book gave rise to the BAFTA-Wales award winning documentary “The Two Wives of Lloyd George” first broadcast in 2009 As well as running her own practice based on board evaluation in the UK corporate sector Ffion Hague is also a board member of the Outward Bound Trust and English National Opera. In 2010 she was elected an Honorary Fellow of Manchester College, Oxford.
