Today’s selection of clips from our back catalogue focus on the importance of stage schools in so many of our past guests’ careers.

We hear about the different fortunes of pupils from various prestigious schools, including Giovanna Fletcher who secured a place at Sylvia Young Theatre School without ever even having a professional audition!

Elsewhere, Dani Behr remembers bouncing from one opportunity to the next after she graduated, while Daisy May Cooper once debated taking a job in a Christmas grotto when her early career plans didn’t pan out - but her relentless grit eventually prevailed.

There aren’t many actors across stage and screen who have had a career like Bonnie Langford. Across five decades, she has cemented herself as a certified national treasure - even if she’s far too humble to admit such a thing!

She sits down with Kate to discuss the highlights from her storied career, the renewed need to relieve the pressure and enjoy her work and how sometimes you’ve just got to get a little bit angry. Enjoy!

This week, we’re joined by former England cricket legend turned TV personality Phil Tufnell. Oh, and now he’s a winemaker too!

Phil and Kate reminisce about a storied cricket career that was nearly knocked permanently off course by the untimely death of his mother. Phil reveals how he found vital support in his father and more recently his wife. They also remember various mishaps on stage and screen - no doubt their time on the Strictly dancefloor has prepared him for heading out on the road with Matt Dawson and Sue Barker once again!
