Its the second season finale AND Xmas special of The Last Show on Earth!!

If there was a huge asteroid hurtling toward Earth threatening to destroy life as we know it and you could see one more show before you die, what would it be? It can be anything you want - a show you’ve seen before, one that you wish you’d seen, or something you’ve made up entirely. What would be YOUR Last Show on Earth? This is the podcast in which we ask a special guest the big, BIG question that nobody ever needed (or indeed) bothered to ask.

Our guest for this special episode is Bertie Carvel.

Destined to be remembered as one of the great actors of our time, Bertie Carvel is a force of nature and has had a meteoric rise to greatness winning numerous Tonys and Oliviers for musicals and plays and his career has seen triumph after triumph on screen and stage at the highest level. Known to musical theatre fans primarily for his incredible award winning performance as Miss Trunchbull in Matilda he has an impressive body of work with highlights including Parade, Macbeth, Ink, The 47th, Pygmalion, Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell, Sherlock, Doctor Who, Babylon, The Crown, Doctor Foster and detective show Dalgliesh - on which the lucky fella got the chance to work with Alistair Brammer!
