Early life and education


Dimbleby was born in 1943.[3][4] She is the daughter of Thomas Josceline Gaskell (1906-1982) and Barbara Jowett (died 1998), whose father Percy Hague Jowett was principal of London's Royal College of Art.[5] In 1948, her mother Barbara Jowett married again, to Sir William Montagu-Pollock.[6]

Dimbleby was educated at Cranborne Chase School,[7] a former boarding independent school for girls near Tisbury in Wiltshire.

Dimbleby's great-grandmother, May Gaskell, was a "romantic confidante" of the artist Edward Burne-Jones, and a painting of her daughter Amy Gaskell by Burne-Jones is in the collection of Andrew Lloyd-Webber.[8] In 2004, Dimbleby published A Profound Secret, about May Gaskell's life.[8]
