Tom Davis is one of the funniest people I know. We first met ten years ago on Murder in Successville, the hilarious BBC3 sitcom he co-created with his friend James De Frond. 

At the time, I had no idea what I was getting myself into. What I didn’t realise then was just how much the show meant to Tom. Murder in Successville wasn’t just another job for him. It was a pivotal moment and there was so much riding on it. 

This conversation is a rollercoaster. I haven’t laughed that much in a long time - but it also reveals a side to Tom that goes far beyond the laughs.

In this episode, Tom shares:

• Why he took a risk on me for the very first episode of Murder in Successville
• How he desperately wanted to be a dad and feared it might not happen
• Why he decided to go sober and what it’s taught him 
• What Timothée Chalamet text him after the Critics Choice Awards
• What happened when Tom was mistaken for Ed Sheeran’s bodyguard 

This conversation is a reminder that it’s not always a simple road to success - true success is a journey. 

Tom Davis is Great Company.

Zara Larsson is having a moment with her hit song, Midnight Summer. So, who better to feature as this week’s Great Moment… 

One of pop’s brightest stars, Zara is sweet, magnetic and unapologetically herself. In this Great Moment, she talks about why it’s so important to make music she truly believes in, instead of getting caught up in what everyone else expects. 

The BRIT nominee shares how easy it can be to lose yourself when you’re trying to please everyone and why seeing artists like Beyonce reach the top while staying true to who they are, means so much to her. 

Whether you’re a creative, a dreamer or just someone trying to figure things out, this one’s for you. Make what YOU love, back yourself and the rest will follow.

Chris Olsen is one of the biggest social media stars in the world. He joined TikTok in 2020 and quickly became a viral sensation. I’ve admired him for a long time - his social media content is so funny, honest, and just impossible to scroll past. 

But what I didn’t fully appreciate until this conversation was just how much he’s been through to get to where he is today. 

Chris opens up about getting sober at 19 - before he’d ever had a legal drink - and the intervention that forced him into an impossible choice: choosing between his family and alcohol. 

We cover: 

• His journey to sobriety and what it’s taught him 
• The heartbreaking moment his mum told him she was an alcoholic 
• How he handles online criticism without it defining him
• The best advice Meghan Trainor ever gave him 
• How Chris met his new boyfriend Harrison 

This conversation is about choosing yourself, even when it’s hard, and about building a life that feels worth protecting.

We often talk about the impact our parents have on us growing up but what happens when one of them isn’t there? 

For Shirley Ballas, growing up without a father didn’t just affect her childhood. It influenced her confidence, her relationships and how she saw herself - in ways she only began to understand much later in life.

In this Great Moment, Shirley opens up about the emotional gap her father left behind and how facing his death brought an unexpected closure. 

This is for anyone who’s felt the quiet impact of someone missing.

You might not know Jack Thorne’s name but you’ll definitely know his work. He’s the award-winning writer behind Adolescence, Skins, This is England and Harry Potter and the Cursed Child.

For years, he has created intense, thought-provoking dramas - stories that speak to millions of us around the world. His work doesn’t just entertain, it creates conversations about who we are and the world we live in. 

I loved this conversation with Jack. What surprised me most was learning that behind his success is someone who grew up feeling like he didn’t quite belong. It was through his writing that Jack found his purpose: telling stories that matter.  

We cover: 

• Locking eyes with Leonardo DiCaprio during his Golden Globes speech
• Adolescence and the dark side of social media 
• E.T. - the film that made Jack fall in love with cinema 
• His creative partnership and friendship with Stephen Graham
• How his autism diagnosis helped him make sense of his past

If you take one thing from this conversation, let it be this: stories have a quiet power to help us see the world, and ourselves, a little differently.

You can watch Jack's Lord of The Flies series now. All episodes are available on BBC iPlayer.

There are moments in life that split everything into before and after. Losing someone you love is often one of them.

This Great Moment is for anyone who’s experienced loss or, watched someone they love change after it.

Spencer Matthews is one of my oldest friends, and in this conversation he opens up about losing his brother, Mike, when he was just 10 years old. He reflects on how that experience changed him, what grief has taught him and the clarity it can bring to everything else in life.

This is part 2 of my conversation with the incredible Jesy Nelson. 

Growing up in Romford, Jesy always dreamed of being on stage. But years of bullying slowly knocked her confidence until she stopped believing in herself, right up until The X Factor. 

Auditioning for The X Factor changed Jesy’s life. Her dreams came true overnight but fame wasn’t what she thought it would be. 

In part 2 of our conversation, Jesy opens up about what fame was really like and the relentless trolling that followed her. She shares the real reason she left Little Mix and why walking away was her only option. 

We cover: 

• Being bullied as a child and how it led to alopecia
• Dancing with Diversity as a teenager 
• Auditioning for The X Factor and Gary Barlow’s harsh comments
• The rollercoaster highs and lows of Little Mix 
• Why leaving Little Mix was the best thing she ever did 
• How motherhood has given her a new confidence 

This is one of those rare, real conversations. Jesy opens up about the journey that’s made her who she is today and I’m so grateful she trusted me with her story. 

Jesy Nelson is Great Company.
