This session delves into the genesis of the F-Type, tracing its origins back to its debut at the Detroit Auto Show in 2000, where it was first presented as a concept by the esteemed designer Keith Helfet.
“The F-Type concept car showcased clean lines and features like teardrop headlights, serving as a bridge between Jaguar's legacy and future aspirations.” -Chloe [03:35]

The narrative unfolds by examining the intricate design elements that characterize the F-Type, including its sleek lines and distinctive oval grille, which pay homage to Jaguar's illustrious heritage while simultaneously reflecting a forward-looking vision.

- Ian Callum's influence in shaping the F-Type has been profound, merging classic design elements with contemporary performance characteristics.
- The enduring legacy of the F-Type will likely continue as Jaguar navigates the evolving automotive landscape, ensuring the spirit of driving remains intact.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
