I have agreed (rather stupidly) to go and give a couple of talks on Wills and Inheritance to a local women's group. Now I am quite used to lecturing other lawyers, but this group are NOT lawyers and their only interest is as Josephine Public.

If you were attending such a talk, how could I make it more interesting for you? I was thinking of splitting it into 3 sections

1 the general stuff (ie who can and can't be an exec, what a Grant of Probate is, what the intestacy rules are, why it is important to leave a Will)
2 Some general fallacies concerning Wills and Probate - you know myth debunking and all that
3 Some funny/disturbing stories and interesting miscellaneous stuff, like the shortest will, an imposter to a will/murder case, fighting over a biscuit barrel at the RCJ late one night etc

What would YOU find interesting?
