Another packed show this week as I welcomed two guests – Robert Duncan, star of many shows although best remembered for his role of Gus Hedges in Channel 4 comedy Drop The Dead Donkey, and Jean Havilland, photographer, actor, dancer and the original Babycham girl!
Robert talked about his acting career and what it was like on the set of the fast moving new comedy, acting with stars such as Neal Pearson, Stephen Tompkinson, Jeff Rawle and Haydn Gwynne.
Jean chatted about her own career which included an appearance in the video for Cliff Richard’s Devil Woman – and of course “that ad”.
Today’s musical playlist had a panto theme – and that’s where I’m going for the next few weeks! If you’re up north you can catch me in Aladdin at the Northwich Memorial Court from 9 December to 1 January, where I will be appearing as the Slave Of The Ring alongside Coronation Street star Charles Lawson, Britain’s Got Talent runner-up Ronan Parke and Northwich favourites Ryan Greaves and Steve Moorewood.
See you back on Phoenix FM in the New Year!
