Great Scot!

Alan Cumming


Listen Later

I’m so glad that Alan Cumming and I were able to meet face to face in Glasgow for our 'Great Scot!' chat in those heady pre-Covid days at the end of last year. I’ve known Alan since he was starting out in his career in the 1980s and he really hasn’t changed that much. The hair may be silver, but he still has those twinkly eyes, the dimples, that wicked laugh – and the most extraordinary work ethic. He always has multiple projects on the go, as he did when we met up, but, as ever, he was generous with his time and thoughtful in his answers.
