The twenty-first century is an age of in numerable social conundrums. What is the correct way to deal with dinner guests who check their emails throughout the meal?

Whether you're unsure of the correct footwear for shooting or how to look professional in a bath towel, debating the etiquette of doggy bags or installing a massage room in your second home, Sir David has the answer to all your social anxieties - and more besides.
