October 20, 2022 Ṣọpẹ Dìrísù
To mark the release of the second series of the hit gang-drama, Gangs of London, Fran catches up with Ṣọpẹ Dìrísù who plays Elliot Finch in the show. Ṣọpẹ describes GoL as an "athletic ballet of violence”, but as much as his physical performance has attracted calls for him to be Daniel Craig’s successor in Bond, Ṣọpẹ is is as equally in touch with his softer side as Fran discovers his deep connection to a certain childhood animated film. Plus, they discuss some of the plot twist people in his life and why it’s important to always keep grounded.

September 30, 2022 Kevin 'KG' Garry and Sam Campbell
This week Tom meets two stars of the hilarious paramedic comedy, Bloods – Kevin 'KG' Garry and Sam Campbell – who play the duo Darryl and Darrell. Aside from acting, both are forces on the UK stand-up circuit, and in fact, Sam has just returned from Edinburgh Fringe after winning the coveted award for Best Comedy Show. And it shows. We couldn't have prepared for this interview – it's disruptive, random and full of plot twists. Expect stories about including Jane Horrocks table tennis serve, a covert alien invasion, and Timothy Spall's ability to method act as a moustache. We can't guarantee everything is true.

All episode of Bloods are available to stream on NOW.

September 20, 2022 Rob Rinder
From a criminal barrister, to TV judge, presenter and Strictly Come Dancing contestant – Rob Rinder's career is full of plot twist moments. But as he shares with Tom, his life in TV actually started out from a hobby as a scriptwriter, inspired by giving his "jobless" actor friends something to be in. Despite his scripts being deemed as "really rubbish" by TV execs, he left an impression which would eventually change his life. And the art of negotiation continues in his new show, Rob Rinder's Interrogation Secrets – in which he takes a unique look at the battle of wits between police and suspects in some of the most disturbing US and UK criminal cases.

July 01, 2022 Phil Rosenthal
Phil Rosenthal was the creator, writer, and executive producer of the sitcom Everybody Loves Raymond - a show loved across the world, and synonymous of a golden age in American TV comedy. Today he's the star in something with a different flavour completely – a food-travel series called Somebody Feed Phil. But his journey to both of these gigs, was longwinded and roundabout, with a few breakdowns and terrible "grey meat" suppers along the way. Speaking with Tom and Fran, Phil shares a hilarious look back at his own life and loves (mostly food), a life-changing partnership with Ray Romano, and finding the funny in everyday interactions.

June 22, 2022 Miriam Margolyes
From Professor Sprout in Harry Potter, to potty-mouthed talkshow appearances, an esteemed career in theatre, and a BAFTA winning hit in The Age of Innocence (alongside Daniel Day-Lewis, Michelle Pfeiffer and Winona Ryder) – Miriam Margolyes’ career has continued to surprise and delight at every opportunity. Shortly after her 81st birthday she sat down to talk with Tom to discuss her bewilderment at her new-found popularity with the Tik Tok generation, thoughts on love, her biggest regrets, and how she’s never stop being herself.

May 31, 2022 Indira Varma
Indira Varma’s credits read like a bucket list – from Game of Thrones, to Luther, the Star Wars franchise, and even an Olivier Award for her work in the theatre – there’s not much she hasn’t conquered. Speaking with Tom, she shares the plot twists that have driven her career from an unusual start in the (slightly risqué) film Kama Sutra: A Tale Of Love, to landing her most famous role as Ellaria Sand by chance, and the joy of working with stormtroopers and lightsabers in the hotly anticipated new Obi-Wan Kenobi TV series.

March 25, 2022 David Harewood
As CIA counter-terrorism boss David Estes in Homeland, and the Martian Manhunter in DC’s Super Girl, David Harewood is an actor known for characters that ooze strength and confidence. But off-screen David is a true thespian and – as he explains to Tom – has lived a life of twists and turns that he channels into his work. He touches on growing up in Birmingham with racism in the air, being down to his last £80 (twenty years into his career) before getting his big American break, and the pivotal moment where he suffered a serious psychotic breakdown.

This episode contains explicit language, discussion of racism, and mental illness.
