Finally I have to mention The School of Life Sermon program, kind of a lecture series on a topic by an authority on that topic - for instance Gluttony spoken about by a chef - with music and tea and cake in the beautiful Conway Hall in Holborn. Tickets £12.50. This School of Life do all sorts though. And apparently not as culty as it sounds.
