Since 1995 Pauline McLynn is seldom mentioned without a reference to tea. I offered her tea and then accidentally gave her coffee. Pauline tells us about her time in Trinity College, her first performance and her secret Eurovision fetish. Our chat takes us from a parochial house on Craggy Island to Clatterford with Jennifer Saunders and she even reveals a stage role she has her eye on. Pauline is an actress, an author and an absolute delight.
