International media

In November 2008, Hanson filmed for the Australian version of Ladette to Lady[8] He quit filming two days early; in an interview with the Daily Telegraph, Hanson stated that the programme is "detrimental to promoting good manners and etiquette".[9]

In 2015 he joined the MailOnline as a columnist, writing about social class, etiquette and the British royal family.[10]

In August 2017 he performed at the 70th Edinburgh Festival Fringe with The Etiquette Show: Much Ado About Everything[11] with one reviewer calling Hanson's performance "gently camp and very debonair".[12]

He regularly appears on BBC Radio 2's Steve Wright in the Afternoon programme talking about different topics of etiquette and answering listeners' dilemmas.[13]

Podcast

Hanson currently hosts a podcast called Help I Sexted My Boss with BBC Radio 1 presenter and friend Jordan North and Ben Cartwright ('Producer Ben').
