Does anyone know of any large open spaces where one can practice driving? I will be supervising my wife and she would be insured on my car. Anyone know a place in/near Hertfordshire?

Best places are supermarket car parks after 4pm on Sunday. As you say, you will be legal for insurance etc. As you probably know, this is still a requirement on a car park as it is considered 'public'.

May be a bit far for you but this place in Essex is excellent for learners. You use your own car, costs £15 to enter (15x£1 coins to open barrier) and you can stay in all day. There's roundabouts, traffic lights etc. Make a day of it!

Have you found anywhere yet?

Once she knows the basics, however, I would suggest it is best to get on to real roads, and practice real driving.

Is she also getting professional lessons?

The only draw-back may be the CCTV cameras or the parking cameras. Not to mention the boy racers?

If she's insured there will be no problem with the parking cameras as she wont be leaving the car and parking. CCTV will be a bonus as that will surely keep the boy racers away?

Why do some people ask ONE question, and then disappear?

Dunno. It's almost as strange as forum members that refuse to answer questions from other forum members.
