It's time for Episode 28 of the pod and Alex's guest today is the brilliant Ian Shaw who can currently be seen on stage at The Ambassadors Theatre in London's West End in the fantastic play The Shark Is Broken. It's about the relationship between the three leads in Jaws who found themselves with rather more downtime than expected when the shark infamously failed to work! Ian takes the role of his father, the late Robert Shaw and they discuss what it was like for him playing his dad, the inspiration for the play and obviously a lot about Jaws! Hope you enjoy the episode and don't forget you can watch the video interview on our YouTube channel this Friday.
