The BALANCE podcast

Esme's schedule wouldn't allow it, but we'd be up for a pod a week with the star of Hanna. Esme was on sparkling form on the BALANCE podcast as we talk lockdown, long days, the importance of indie and indie voices and so much more.

Hanna seasons 1 & 2 are available to watch now on Amazon. To find out more about Hanna, visit here.

Hanna Sillitoe is on the BALANCE podcast.

The skin-healing expert reveals how a harsh comment during childhood would have such a profound impact on her life. And how we choose to react to such things can change everything - after all, we chat as Hanna has a hugely successful book and best-selling range of plant-based skincare.

To find out more, please visit Hanna's official site.

I May Destroy You is - quite rightly - earning all the plaudits and rave reviews right now.

And so we are thrilled to talk with one of the stars - Weruche Opia - about the BBC hit.

Weruche - like Balance - is also a fan of dreaming big.

Himesh Patel is on the BALANCE podcast!

BALANCE had coincidentally just watched - and fallen in love with - hit movie Yesterday before the chance to speak to lovely Himesh arose, and so couldn't believe our luck (if we sound even giddier than usual).

We talk about Danny Boyle's beloved film, doing the hard yards on Eastenders, the selfless work done by so many on lockdown, the return of football (Himesh is a Spurs fan) and much more.

Jake Lambert is one of the hottest properties in British comedy.

Also known as @littlelostlad on social media, Jake shares how he went from having a knack of being good at Twitter to playing to thousands while supporting Michael McIntyre on tour, writing for top TV shows and chalking up a raft of TV appearances.

Iain Morris & Damon Beesley are two absolute titans of British comedy.

They've worked with, nurtured or helped break through the likes of Sasha Baron Cohen, Peter Kay, Ricky Gervais and many more, before finding huge success on their own terms with The Inbetweeners. The sitcom proved a profound hit and spawned two eye-wateringly successful sequels.

Now Damon and Iain have scored another goal (sorry!) with terrific football sitcom The First Team; all episodes are available to watch on iPlayer.

One of the most exciting presences across TV and radio - the wonderful Laura Woods - is guest on the BALANCE podcast.

As Laura says, she has worked her way up from being a runner to becoming one of the most beloved figures in broadcasting - no wonder TalkSport snapped her up to host the coveted breakfast slot. As well as radio, Laura has also become a titan at Sky Sports, where she started out at "the bottom".

The supremely talented actor talks about the benefits of having a zen mindset, lockdown life and spellbinding new show Gangs Of London, which is available to watch across Sky and NOW TV.

If you're in need of a calming presence right now (I know I am!), then Pippa proves the most perfect company.
