TV presenter Kirstie Allsopp blasts her parents for shipping her off to boarding school aged eight - and says that she could never do the same to her two sons

Britain's education system has long been in the firing line of vociferous TV presenter Kirstie Allsopp, whose distressing childhood experience turned her against boarding schools. 


But now, for the first time, the host of Channel 4's hit series Location, Location, Location has launched a personal attack on her own parents, the esteemed Lord and Lady Hindlip, claiming they neglected her needs by shipping her away aged just eight.
