Listen Later

Writer, broadcaster and cultural commentator.Emma Freud was born into the world of literature with her father being the eminent politician and broadcaster Sir Clement Freud. Making her television debut presenting LWT's The Six O'Clock Show from 1986, Freud gained a reputation for her smooth journalistic style and in 1990 secured her own BBC2 afternoon chat show Plunder which celebrated her guest’s best TV moments in a frank interview setting. From January 1994, she inherited the famous lunchtime slot on BBC Radio 1 which later became Jo Whiley’s Lunchtime Social. Yet perhaps her biggest achievement is her contributions to the international charity Comic Relief with partner Richard Curtis in 1985 which has since become a British institution raising over one billion pounds for good causes both in the UK and around the world. I caught up with the creative powerhouse to talk family, charity and her recollections on a highly successful career in the Arts. Ladies and gentlemen Ms Emma Freud.
