She’s spent time at Empire magazine, Time Out in New York, Nuts magazine and Shortlist amongst many others.

She’s a brilliant, brilliant guest that we’re dead proud to have her on.

S'appenin pals! Hope you're well within yourselves. Welcome to another Two Shot Podcast episode. It's a great one. We took a trip over to Hyde Park in Leeds for a chat with James Smith, the singer in a brilliant band called Yard Act. We arrived early at the legendary Brudenell Social Club and since the sun was out, we decided to record al fresco (hope you enjoy the ambience). James made us a brew and we got down to it. Touching on performance integrity, glasto scepticism, shifting audience perceptions, The Beatles, band iterations, poetic inhibitions and loads, loads more. If you haven't listened to Yard Act yet, go and give em a spin and then dive in to this episode. You'll love it.

This is episode three of series ten of the Two Shot Podcast with James Smith.

Hiyer mates. Hope you’re all good and well. We’re back with another episode of TSP (sorry we’re a day late - glasto etc.) and this week, it’s a very lovely chat with the very lovely Taj Atwal. You might know Taj from Stella, In The Club, The Syndicate or Hullraisers amongst a bunch of other stuff, but this being the Two Shot Podcast, we don’t chat too much about that.

Taj and Craig chat about growing up in Norwich and York, maths lessons or lack thereof, singing lessons and doing it for yourself, the protective jacket of Northerness, people-watching and writing, changing and growing and tons more. You'll love it we're sure.

This is series ten, episode two of the Two Shot Podcast with the fabulous Taj Atwal.

Hiyer. How's it going? Two Shot Podcast here. More like the "Too Hot Podcast" amirite!?!? (sorry if anyone saw us use that joke already on instagram). Anyway, hope you're enjoying the British sunny snap, and if you're not in Britain, then I hope the weather where you are is equally clement. Weather chat done. Welcome to series 10! We've got an absolute banger to kick off with too. It's a lovely chat with Emma Appleton. She's a fantastic actress who you may have seen playing Nancy recently in Danny Boyle's 'Pistol'. She's also in the brilliant new adaptation of Dolly Alderton's 'Everything I Know About Love' on the BBC along with Craig, so go and check those out when you're next short of something to watch.

This is a fabulous hour and a bit with Emma and Craig touching on all sorts; The intensity of London, corn exchanges, unsupportive teachers, modelling and creative fulfilment, the sex pistols, power and planning, and loads, loads more. She's a brilliant guest and we're buzzing she decided to come on.

This is series ten, episode one of the Two Shot Podcast with Emma Appleton!

You’ll know Gemma from tons of ace stuff: Game Of Thrones, Gentleman Jack, The End of the F***ing World, and Killing Eve amongst many, many others.

Gemma and Craig sat down over Zoom and had a proper good chat about tampons, stand-up comedy, children, the north and south, drama, TV and theatre, being a mum, believability and loads, loads more. It’s a brilliant way to bring the series to a close, and you’ll absolutely love it.

Hiyer. We’re back with something a little bit different here. It’s a little bonus episode. Craig was on twitter the other day and saw that ALRA (The Academy of Live and Recorded Arts) was very suddenly closing its doors throwing the future of its students and staff into uncertainty. Craig did a bit of digging and had a bit of a chat with 4 students to get their side of the story. Have a listen. All will be explained…

Hello Two Shot Podcast listeners. It’s Two Shot Podcast time. We’ve got a really special one for you this week. Our guest is the fantastic actor Amber Anderson.

You’ll know Amber from the final series of Peaky Blinders where she brilliantly plays the fascist Lady Diana Mitford. You may also have seen her in White Lie, Strike, Mr. Burberry or Autumn De Wilde’s 2020 adaptation of Emma amongst many other things. Amber has also been an extremely successful model, walking for some the biggest French fashion houses and leading campaigns for some massive brands.

Amber is so honest and open about her career, and (trigger warning) she talks very candidly about abusive and coercive directors, photographers and other industry figures. She and Craig discuss tea, PTSD, happiness, the dangers of hot tubs, drawing lines in the sand, people who hide behind sunglasses and loads, loads more. She’s a fantastically strong and inspiring woman and we’re honoured she felt she could share her story with us.

This is series 9, episode 19 of the Two Shot Podcast with Amber Anderson.

Now then. Hope you’re all doing well. Sorry we left you episodeless last week. Craig had the flipping pandemic. Anyway, we’re back with a belter of an ep this week. It’s television legend Les Dennis.

You’ll know him from his iconic work on Family Fortunes and the Russ Abbott show. You may have seen him in Chicago or Me and My Girl in the West End. He’s recently reprised his role in Hairspray at the London Coliseum.

Les is a fascinating person with so many strings to his bow and a myriad of stories to tell. He and Craig talk about Liverpool, celebrity Big Brother, losing pals, turning down arse doubles, the Royal Shakespeare Company and loads, loads more.

It’s a fantastic hour with a fantastic fella.

This is series nine, episode eighteen of the Two Shot Podcast with Les Dennis.
