This week’s guest on Man In The Mirror (can we call it a ‘season finale’ please?!) is Richard E. Grant . Richard is an Oscar-nominated actor, author, documentary maker and owner (with his daughter Olivia) of the Jack Perfume brand.

Richard took some time to chat to me from his home in London. We talked about the creation of the Jack Perfume brand, how and why it happened, his dislike of seeing himself on screen or on camera - and what he’s planning next with Jack. We also spoke about Richard’s late wife Joan and his book about the period before she died called ‘A Pocketful of Happiness’. 

My heartfelt thanks to Richard for spending the time with me, it was a real pleasure and I hope you enjoy the conversation. (Note - there were some sound issues beyond our control on this episode, so I hope it doesn’t spoil your enjoyment too much.) 

I’ll be back in the New Year with more episodes and more great guests. See you then!
