The last ever Two Shot Podcast - Craig chats with Vicky McClure
Happy new year folks! As we celebrate the start of a new year we also celebrate the end of the TSP journey. What a 6 year journey it’s been! We’ve loved every second. How do we end it though? We couldn’t just record another episode. It had to be special. It had to mean something. How do we do that? We thought long and hard and then we decided to end it at the start. As you remember our very first guest was the magnificent Vicky McClure so it would seem a full circle moment was in order. A bit of a different spin this time though. If you’ve been with us for a while you’ll know that one guest that keep getting asked for again and again is our host, Craig. So….. Craig asked Vicky if she’d be up for turning the tables so that Vicky would be the one asking the questions and Craig would be on the receiving end. Seems perfect right? We think so. Craig drove to Nottingham to meet Vicky and they recorded this very special ending at the brilliant Mount Street Studios. We hope you enjoy. Who knows, tears may be shed. We just wanted to say a massive thank you to everyone that’s supported us over the years, it’s been a blast. Until we speak again, all our love and gratitude to you and every guest that’s given their free time to talk. Craig & Griff Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Joe Wilkinson
Another Week, another podcast, but only for so long. This week Craig decides to head back down to the beach at dusk. As the day becomes night he wanders on a darkening beach to have a chat and welcome this weeks guest. It’s only stand up, 8 out of 10 cats favourite and top ‘podder’ JOE WILKINSON! You’ll also know Joe’s work as an actor, his work on the brilliant comedy HIM & HER really made us all take notice. As a writer, he’s collaborated with his comedy partner David Earl to create the much loved shows THE COCKFIELDS and ROVERS His work with David Earl continues 3 days a week as they co host the fantastic podcast CHATABIX podcast. What? You don’t listen? Get on it. It’s very funny and they have some incredible guests on. We highly recommend you make that part of your podcast library…after we’ve gone, of course. As Craig and Joe live near each other, CP popped the kettle on and Joe came knocking. Luckily for Joe, Craig was at home and answered the door. Once the brews were in hand they hit record and let it all flow. This is one of those classic TSP’s where two people have never met before... but you wouldn’t think it when listening. It’s a great natter and you’ll really get a handle on who Joe is. We’ve all seen his brilliant character persona, either on stage performing stand up or stealing the show from Jimmy Carr and his guests on 8 out of 10 cats, now lets get to know the real Joe Wilkinson. One more thing! Joe is now an author! He’s collaborated with his friend Henry Paker on JOE WILKINSON: My (illustrated) Autobiography. As ever with an artist like Joe, all is not what it seems with this book, apart from it being very funny indeed. Go check it out at your local book shop. This is the TWO SHOT PODCAST with the incomparable JOE WILKINSON. We really think you’re going to love this one.

Connor Swindells
Happy Thursday gang. Hope you’re all doing well? It’s that time of the week to stop what you’re doing, pop your feet up & take some time to dive into someone else’s life for an hour or so. Every now and then we think it’s important to highlight past episodes that you may have missed that we feel are important listening. Even ir you’ve heard this before, it’s worth another listen. Now, no doubt, you’ve either binged through Sex Education season 3 on Netflix or you’re taking your time. We’re sure you’ll be knocked out by the performances and will have fallen all in love with the characters again. One stand out will be Adam Groff played by this week's reissue guest CONNOR SWINDELLS. Apart from Sex Ed, you’ll have seen Connor as part of the incredible ensemble cast of BBC’s VIGIL that has just completed its run. This was a fantastic episode and so great to meet Connor. It’s an episode that goes deep and you’ll get to know Connor after spending some time with him. You never know, you may relate to some of the topics that come up during the conversation. Enough now. Let’s get on with it shall we? This is The Two Shot Podcast, with the wonderfully open, Connor Swindells. Orig blurb - Hello. How are you? We do hope you're alright. We've got another episode of the Two Shot Podcast for you this week. It's our 83rd and it's a chat with an actor called Connor Swindells. Connor showed up to meet us in Soho looking unflappably cool and wearing one of the loveliest pairs of boats we've ever seen. He then proceeded to pour his heart out onto the table and share with us his incredible story of love, loss, passion and paranoia. You'll hear him talk about boxing, on-set breakdowns, not fitting in with your big brothers and being poor. He really doesn't hold too much back.You might know Connor from the hit Netflix show Sex Education where he plays the character Adam Groff. You might've seen him in the films VS. or The Vanishing. He's a great actor who really inhabits his work and the future looks so, so bright for him. Craig gives a little warning in the intro of this week's podcast as some of the subjects we touch on are pretty heavy. If you're feeling a bit fragile, it might be worth leaving listening until you feel a bit better. Or, conversely, it might be exactly what you need to hear. Either way, we can't thank Connor enough for sharing an hour with us and with you. A bit of bad news here about the live show at the BFI - We’re so sorry to say that due to a personal issue, we’ve had to pull out of the Radio Times festival on April 14th. We're so sorry to let you down but this is unavoidable. Many thanks to Radio Times, the BFI & Richard E. Grant for their warmth & support. BFI will be in touch about refunds. We’ll talk to Richard later in the year. Promise. Thanks a lot for listening. If you want a TSP badge then have a listen <a href=

Well we hope. We've been on a sabbatical as Craig has been moving house and getting a load of other life stuff sorted, but we're back and bringing you a weekly dose of TSP conversational goodness. We kick off again with a chat with Joe Tracini. Joe is an actor, magician, presenter and activist who exudes energy and positivity but he's had it pretty tough. Joe talks us through his mental illness, his compulsions, his addiction, his closeness to suicide and the incredible hardships he has come through to be where he is today. We met Joe on a chilly winter's day in Soho. We got a couple of coffee's and got down to it. We'd like to thank Joe for his extraordinary candidness and honesty. It's so brave to talk about what is still so stigmatised with such self-reflection and lack of self-pity. If anyone is affected by the issues raised in this episode there are plenty of people to talk to.

Roy
Happy Thursday to you. Well, c'mon, we have to try and be a little bit positive don’t we? If you’re in the UK, we hope you’re enjoying the crisper, sunnier days. It’s really helping with everything isn’t it? This week we head over to Liverpool (albeit remotely) to have a sit down with storyteller ‘Roy’. To give you some context to our conversation, ‘Roy’ very kindly reads an excerpt from his recently published book of short stories, ‘Algorithm Party’ ( available to buy on Rough Trade) It’s a fascinating discussion where Craig and ‘Roy’ discuss growing up on the same street for years, acceptance, grief, addiction, recovery, creativity and so much more. Just to warn you, this episode touches on certain sensitive subjects such as suicide, addiction and contains very strong language. It is however, a discussion full of hope and ultimately, positivity and we think you’re going to be gripped. Also, on a side note, you may have heard but from 21st March Craig will be hosting the official Line Of Duty podcast over on BBC SOUNDS so go get subscribed if that’s your thing. Get in touch...

Nicole Kidman
Hiyer Two Shot Pod pals. Hope you're all keeping well. We're back with another episode and this week we're talking to none other than the completely legendary Nicole Kidman! Craig dialled in to New South Wales to have a TSP chin wag with Nicole and they really got into it. They talk about her first forays into the acting world at the tender age of 14, her love of theatre and the trepidation she felt before treading the boards in the West End, traveling for work with her kids and close ones, the importance of drama school knowledge you were convinced you'd never need and loads, loads more. Nicole has done it all. From BMX Bandits (which Craig does bring up) to Batman, from To Die For to Moulin Rouge, she's one the greats of our time. The conversation starts with a bit of discussion about Nicole's most recent HBO project The Undoing which will be available on Sky Atlantic & NOW TV from 26 October. Craig is certainly on the edge of his seat to see the final episode. Nicole is a fabulous guest and we're sure you'll enjoy listening this, episode 136 of the Two Shot Podcast. Get in touch...

For now, though, let’s keep the conversation going as it seems to be a comfort for us all doesn’t it? We have another revisit this week in the shape of comedian & now fully legit author of an actual proper book, it’s the brilliant MATT FORDE...

It’s Thursday so that means a new episode. Saying that, yes, I know we had a new episode this Tuesday but that was originally last Thursday’s episode but we couldn’t put it out due to an embargo so ....sorry, even we’re confused right now.

Hayley Squires
Happy Thursday one and all. Hope you’re all doing well and* if you’re in the UK keeping to your groups of 6 and not giving any weight to what certain Britpop stars are wanging on about. But enough of *that*. Let’s not discuss it. It’s certainly something we don’t even touch on in this weeks episode because we're far too busy discussing creativity, growing up, moving around, writing and close knit families. There's a small natter about Hayley's new C4 series ADULT MATERIAL* which is discomforting, groundbreaking, shocking and funny show that, on the surface, is a delve into the world of the adult entertainment business but as the story storms on raises questions about motherhood and injustice and power. It’s an incredible watch with Hayley ( once again) showing incredible skills as the lead character and Lucy Kirkwood’s incredible script keeps us asking questions as an audience right till the end....and long after. Of course, you’ll have seen Hayley burst into the screen in her award winning breakthrough performance in Ken Loach’s ‘ I, Daniel Blake’ but here on TSP we get to discuss all the important things with Hayley. You know the drill. We really hope you enjoy this incredible episode. Thrilled that Hayley made time for us. You will not be disappointed. Get in touch...

I made this for you w/ Cristian Solimeno and Tania Bruce
Hi there TSP listening people. Bit of a different one this week. To mark World Suicide Prevention day, we've taken a slight detour from the norm to talk to two people about a pretty weighty film and some pretty weighty subjects. We shouldn't really go too much further without mentioning that this episode comes with some trigger warnings. There's a lot of discussion about, and descriptions of, suicide. If you're not feeling like you're in a headspace where you can deal with that then it might be wise to give this one a miss. Anyway, this week, Craig is talking to Cristian Solimeno and Tania Bruce, both of whom are heavily involved with fantastic film 'I Made This For You'. You can watch it for free here on YouTube - https://youtu.be/SWLhoUr2vCM We won't say too much more about this ep, but if you are affected by the subjects mentioned please seek help through the following resources - https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/suicide/ Let's keep talking - TSP X Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/twoshotpod .

Happy Thursday listeners. We’ve back with another banger of an episode, and this week our guest is Samantha Morton. Craig and Sam had been trying to to make this recording work for an absolute age and whilst the current lockdown is in many ways shit, it does afford some people a bit of extra free time to get together for a TSP chinwag. Craig dialled in via the inter web earlier this week and got into it. Samantha is one of the finest actors of a generation with a load of amazing directorial credits to her name too. You might know her from Synechdoche, New York, Minority Report, Emma, Jane Eyre or more recently Harlots and The Walking Dead. She and Craig discuss her time in foster care, raves at the Marcus Garvey centre in Lenton, moving house, having a stroke, schoolyard violence, family life and loads, loads more.

It's that time of the week again where we drop another instalment of the Two Shot Podcast on podcast feeds. We've had a mad week of recording this week and we've got a fair few bangers in the can.

Andy welcomed us into his top-floor museum which, if you've seen any of the accompanying pictures or videos from this week's episode, you'll know is a sight to behold. We sat down and pressed record... or we didn't press it properly cos it didn't flipping work!!! So we missed the first 20 odd minutes of the conversation which we're absolutely mortified about -These vids are usually reserved for our Patreon donators but since since we love you all, here's a link to a private video from the bit we missed to give you a flavour of the start of the conversation - Anyway, on to Andy. Andy is an actor, a writer and a director amongst other things, you might know him from Wanderlust, Peaky Blinders, Uprising, and Kick-Ass 2, as well as recent productions of Fiddler On The Roof and Hello Dolly.

Andy and Craig discuss Ghost Stories, getting films made, the challenges of working with a close friend, acting books, pragmatism vs negativity and loads more.

She and Craig talk about her childhood desires to live in the Walton's house, what still needs to change in the industry, the implications of having a different surname to your mum, being in rooms when plays are occurring and how brunch time is the perfect time to put the world to rights. This is episode 102 of the Two Shot Podcast with Rakie Ayola.

Laurie Kynaston
Hi mates. Hope you're all well. It's episode 101 time and our guest this week is Laurie Kynaston. Laurie is a brilliant young actor currently wowing audiences in Florian Zeller's ' The Son ' in London's West End. You might also have seen him in Cradle to Grave or alongside previous guest Nicola Coughlan in Derry Girls. We meet Laurie in our favourite Soho haunt Maison Bertaux, got a brew in and got down to it. As Craig mentions in his intro, Laurie is an incredibly centred young actor with a real gift of self-understanding. He and Craig talk of the magic of childhood film-making, the meditative benefits of musical minimalism, growing up in a bucolic Welsh countryside and loads more.

It seemed very appropriate to mark our hundredth episode with this episode. You'll know Martin from the afore mentioned Line of Duty but also in many other hings including Monarch of the Glen, The Wee Man and Ken Loach's wonderful Sweet Sixteen. It's a proper good chat between mates this one, navigating through the subjects of dance-offs, pub selfy etiquette, mayonnaise revelations and loads more.

Sinead Keenan
Tonight we’re gonna party like it’s episode 99 (that loosely works doesn’t it??). This week we’re joined by the hilarious Sinead Keenan. You might’ve seen her very recently in ITV’s Deep Water, or in BBC Three’s Being Human. Irish listeners may have seen her in RTE’s Fair City. We sat down with her in Soho and hear about the origins of her potty mouth, her grandparent’s ejection from an am-dram group for unruly behaviour, touching Mother Teresa, being listened to by an audience. Sinead is understated and self-deprecating but wickedly funny and incredibly insightful. You’ll love listening to her.

Mark Strong
Hiyer. How goes it? Hope you're good this week. We are. We've done a load of podcast recording. And the first one we're gonna share with you is this absolute beaut featuring the incredible voice of actor Mark Strong. You'll know Mark from loads of stuff. You might've seen him very recently in in Sky One's Temple alongside Craig and previous TSP guest Danny Mays. He's been in loads of other stuff including Kingsman, Sherlock Holmes, Shazam, Deep State, Green Lantern, The Imitation Game, RocknRolla, Zero Dark Thirty and loads, loads more. He's a prolifically brilliant actor and a completely wonderful person. He has a calm and considered demeanour with a voice to match, which we're sure you'll thoroughly enjoy listening to. We sat down with Mark in a swank club in Soho and got down to it. He told us of his joy at playing football matches with unorthodox kick-off times, not regretting turning jobs down, punk bands, being without his parents as a youth, the inexact science of making films, amongst tons of other stuff.

Nicola Coughlan
What’s the story Two Shot Podcast listeners? We’re here with another podcast. It’s with Derry Girls’ superstar Nicola Coughlan. We met up with Nicola a few weeks ago now; back in the London summer. It was a really lovely afternoon so I think we eschewed our usual brews for a pint each and got down to it. We talk mad tattoos, Basquiat, Derry Girls Murals , Galway, the frustrations of academia and tonnes more. Nicola is class. She’s an absolute whirlwind of tales and she’s mint on social media. Do your feed a favour and go and follow her on twitter. Enough with the waffle. On with the episode. This in number 96 with the absolutely ace Nicola CoughlanGet in touch...

Jill Halfpenny
Hiyer. How are ya? Hope you're alright this week. Don't really know what say about this one. It's sad, and brutal, but incredibly honest. For anyone who has experienced grief that they haven't fully processed, it's all too relatable. This week's guest is the amazing human Jill Halfpenny. You might know Jill from Coronations Street, Eastenders or Waterloo Road, or, for those of you that remember the early days of Byker Grove, she played Nicola Dobson throughout her teenage years. We sat down with Jill on a bench in Soho Square (sorry about the construction work noise in the background this week) on a very hot day and heard her stories. Jill has experienced and come through some difficult times and she bears her scars with dignity and passion. She talks candidly about her losses and her struggles as a young actress growing up in the North East of England. She and Craig discuss the pressures of small talk, getting stuff thrown at you on the bus, unprocessed trauma, people-pleasing, being bulletproof and loads, loads more. TRIGGER WARNING - THIS EPISODE CONTAINS QUITE A LOT OF FRANK TALK ABOUT LOSS AND GRIEF. IF THAT'S PRETTY HARD WORK FOR YOU THEN IT MIGHT BE A GOOD IDEA TO WAIT UNTIL YOU'RE FEELING IN A BETTER PLACE BEFORE LISTENING. Get in touch...

What's happening mates! Hope you are all in a good place this week. It's episode ninety four with none other than Gaz Coombes. You'll know loads of Gaz's tunes. His new single Salamander is getting a load of radio play on 6Music. He's been putting out banging records for about 25 years under both his own name and with his group Supergrass. We met Gaz outside Maison Bertaux in Soho on a very sunny day in July. We had a brew and a chat and we recorded it so you can have a listen too. It's a lovely hour or so with Gaz and Craig covering all types of subjects. Have a listen, we reckon you'll like it. Get in touch...

Nile Rodgers
Peace be with you TSP listeners. It's a special Sunday release of the podcast. Last weekend we were at Kendal Calling festival. It was the Friday, before the entire site turned into brown shiny slime. We were set up in Tim Peaks diner along with a couple of hundred tightly packed pals. The extra security was in place and we all awaited the arrival of some real funk royalty. When Nile Rodgers rolled up, I don't think any of us could believe it was happening but we had the absolute pleasure of sitting down with him and being regaled by his stories of Grace Jones, Sesame Street, guitar technique, getting sacked by Shakira and many others.You'll definitely know at least ten songs with Nile's fingerprints on em. He's written and produced for the likes of Madonna, Sister Sledge, Diana Ross, David Bowie, Duran Duran, Daft Punk and Pharrell Williams, The B-52s, as well as his own incredible Chic project. The guy is an absolute boss and we're honoured to have him sit down with us. Big thanks to all those that made this happen at Kendal Calling and the illustrious question askers.

Laura and Jon McClure (Reverend And The Makers)
Hiyer. It's the British summer (apparently) and that means it's festival season. We went up to the beautiful Lowther deer park, got our culturally appropriative head-dresses on and recorded two banging episodes, which means it's double-dose week on the Two Shot Podcast. First up, in our usual Thursday morning slot, we have Sheffield's own power couple, John and Laura McClure from Reverend And The Makers. We've spoken to Jon before on #TSP051 but we thought we'd invite him back on with his partner Laura to discuss the ins and outs of being a band wife and husband, Rev-enders, tour decompression techniques, penis reviews and a bunch of other stuff. Reverend and the Makers are always out on tour soon so make sure you go and get a ticket and keep an eye out for the forthcoming 2-disc 'best-of', out soon on Cooking Vinyl records.This is a chat from down at the lakeside bar at Kendal Calling festival (forgive the distant drums). Hope you enjoy and we'll be back on Sunday for a chat with Chic's legendary Nile Rodgers. Get in touch...

Hello Two Shot Podcast listeners. Lovely of you to join us this week for our second in the ongoing series of "Al Fresco" TSP recordings. This week, we've had a sit down (in the park) with the absolutely hilarious Glenn Wool . Glenn is a Canadian comic who we first met in Manchester after the podcast festival last year. He was completely charming and we did our best to get him to come and have a chat with us before he headed off back to Canada. We met him in Soho Square, tried to find a position on the grass that wasn't excruciatingly painful to sit in and we got down to it. We talk, comedy, love, romance and Canadian mounties amongst a load of other stuff. This is episode 90 of the Two Shot Podcast with Glenn Wool. Get in touch...

Julie Hesmondhalgh
Another day, another podcast. But not just any podcast! This one is with the absolute legend Julie Hesmondhalgh! We've had our fair share of folk from 'up north' on Two Shot over the past few years but for my money, Julie takes the prize for the most intensely Northern accent. Hailing from the Lancastrian town of Accrington, Julie has been on our screens for 20 odd years. You might know her from her iconic portrayal of Hayley Cropper in Coronation Street or more recently in Broadchurch, Happy Valley, Peterloo or Black Roses, as well as many theatrical performances. We met up with Julie in Maison Bertaux in Soho and chatted about retro booze, social issues, Accy, trans visibility, tiredness (or lack thereof) and loads, loads more.

Happy Thursday ! As we travel through the TSP archives, this week, to celebrate the new C4 comedy YEAR OF THE RABBIT ( also starring past TSP fav guest MATT BERRY) we revisit the exceptional episode where we welcomed the force of nature that is SUSAN WOKOMA! It’s a funny and very touching, sometimes extremely moving episode. Enjoy. Year of the rabbit is on 10pm on C4 (uk) and the whole box set is available to go binge on SKY & NOW TV. We’ll be back with BRAND NEW EPISODES TOWARD THE END OF THIS MONTH (June) & then we get back to recording in July. It’ll be worth the wait. All the love Craig & Griff. ORIGINAL TEXT Alright Two Shot Pod listeners. How goes? Hope you're all feeling reasonable or better this week. We've got a treat in store for you in the shape of an absolutely top chat with Susan Wokoma ! You might know Susan from her appearances in Chewing Gum and Crazyhead or more recently her brilliant comedy short Love The Sinner for Sky. We met up with her in the basement room of Maison Bertaux in Soho and after Craig had told the unusually raucous patrons upstairs to keep the noise down, we got down to it. Susan talked movingly about her life growing up with immigrant parents, about being skint, about gentrification in her beloved London and about loads and loads more. It's an absolutely spell-binding hour or so that we're sure you'll find inspiring, heartbreaking and hilarious in various measures.

Can you believe it's a whole year that we've been bringing you episodes? What a year it's been! We've met some incredible people, heard amazing stories, we've laughed, we've cried and drank many cups of tea along the way. It's been a rollercoaster of a year and we're so grateful you've enjoyed and supported the podcast - THANK YOU! As it's our birthday, we thought we'd do something a bit spesh and bring you not 1 episodes but 2! Nice birthday treat, eh? We kick things off with the brilliant Charlie Cooper. If you've seen BBC's award winning THIS COUNTRY then you'll know Charlie as one of the writers and stars. Charlie writes with his sister Daisy May Cooper based on where they grew up in a small village in Gloucestershire. It's a brilliant, hilarious and sometimes heartbreaking series and if you haven't seen it then do yourself a favour and get involved. When, a few months back, we were invited to bring the podcast to the wonderful Bath Festival, we wanted to try and get a local guest on, so Charlie was the perfect fit and lucky for us, the stars aligned and dates worked out and this is the result. Craig and Charlie sat down with a sold-out crowd in the beautiful city of Bath on a rainy evening and the conversation began. Think you're gonna love this one. We certainly did. We chatted about all sorts and began with the subject of male models... THANKS SO MUCH FOR DOWNLOADING AND WE'LL SEE YOU IN A BIT FOR ANOTHER BIRTHDAY EPISODE!!! Get in touch...

TSP Classics - #TSP041 - Matt Berry
Happy Thursday everybody. Hope you're alright. We're not so bad thanks for asking. We've just been having a chat on the phone about when we can get some recording done and bring you some fresh Two Shot Podcast action and the good news is, it won't be that long. In the mean time, we thought we'd let you have a listen to this old episode of the podcast with Matt Berry. Matt's got a new program out called What We Do In The Shadows which you can now watch on the BBC iplayer here (if you're in the UK). It's about Vampires and it's dead funny. Hope you enjoy this episode if you haven't heard it before. XORIGINAL TEXT Here we are again. THIS IS EPISODE 41 OF THE TWO SHOT PODCAST and this week we're thrilled to welcome... the man, the voice... THE MATT BERRY! Craig & Producer Griff travelled into London's Soho to meet Matt on the hottest day of the year so far (remember that? Was that our summer?) and popped to our favourite tea shop, Maison Bertaux (Greek street - you should go, it's ace!) and sat down, and more importantly cooled down, and then got down to it. It's a cracker of an episode with Matt and we discuss all sorts; growing up, music, albums, comedy, creativity, insomnia, and the London dungeons. You're gonna love it. You'll know Matt from his extensive work on shows like Snuffbox, The I.T. Crowd, Darkplace, The Mighty Boosh and of course, the brilliant Toast of London . Sit back. relax. and let the smooth tones of this episode wash over you. YES!! P.S. Sorry about the background noise in this episode. As it was such a lovely day, all the windows and doors were opened out onto the bustling streets of Soho and the chatter and ambience spilled. Just think of it as a bit of audio set-dressing. Nice one. (Producer Griff) Get in touch...

TSP Classics - #TSP010 - Joseph Gilgun
It's mental health awareness week this week so we thought we'd revisit our first Two Shot Podcast chat with Joe Gilgun from September 2017. We get a lot of messages from people who struggle with the insides of their heads and sooooo many of them cite Joe's episodes as a massive help. If you listened to Joe chat with us on episode 78 you'll know he struggles with his mental health, but the way he talks about his experiences seems to resonate completely with so many people. He has an incredible knack of clarifying his thoughts and making the most profound insights whilst simultaneously making you howl with laughter. Anyway, just thought we'd take the opportunity to share this with anyone who hasn't had chance to listen yet or give you a chance to listen back to this brilliant episode. (original text) Alright. How’s it going? Thanks loads for downloading and listening.  Here we at our tenth episode. La Decima! We’ve got something special for you this week...  it’s a Two Shot Podcast chat with the one and only Joseph Gilgun. You might know him as Woody from Shane Meadow's This is England,  As Rudy Wade in Misfits alongside our host Craig, as Eli Dingle in ITV's Emmerdale, or morer recently as Cassidy in AMC's Preacher.  Joe is a special character. A rakish raconteur with a passion for making people piss their pants laughing. He wears his feelings on his sleeve and his disarming honesty and endearing vulnerability really make this an unmissable episode. We talk about drama school, dyslexia, family, anxieties and growing up in a Lancashire town. It’s a wonderfully frank hour or so and if there’s not at least one moment that doesn’t make you laugh out loud then we’ll give you your money back. Enjoy. It’s Two Shot Pod number ten with Joseph Gilgun.  If you want a TSP badge then have a listen here and see how you can get one. If you enjoy the podcast and want to donate we'd absolutely love that!

TSP Classics - #TSP017 - Michael Balogun
We're still on our recording hiatus at the moment but we're still thinking about you lot getting your TSP fix. What we thought we'd do is bring you a selection of our older episodes, so that our newer listeners can hear what's lurking in the back catalogue.We're gonna kick this run off with this episode from November 2017. It's a chat with the actor Michael Balogun...(Original Text) Happy Thursday! Before we get down to it PLEASE READ THIS... We want to say a HUGE thanks... To you! Yes! YOU! Our dear listeners. Two bits of cracking news this week. We were on a list in The Observer (decent paper for those outside these isles). The Two Shot Podcast was in the top 10 most talked about podcasts of 2017! The next day we topped the iTunes Charts of Tv & Film straight in at NUMBER 1! All this is down to you lot supporting, listening and telling others about what you've found. As the clock starts to slowly count down on 2017 this is an amazing bit of news to end the year with so thank you so much.  Right. Let's GET. IT. ON. Episode 17 is a chat with someone who may not have heard of but who's story you are going to remember. Trust us! His name is Michael Balogun. This is his story and I cannot even begin to tell you how it goes. All I can say is "strap in"; it's a rollercoaster of a tale.  Craig & Producer Griff travelled to meet Michael at the fantastic HOME in Manchester to sit down, brew up and get their podcast on! This is a fascinating chat with someone who is learning from his mistakes and even though it took quite some time to find the right path, he's now well and truly on it. That's as much as we are going to say, don't want to spoil anything.  Enjoy.

Mike Jibson
Hiyer. How's it going? Happy Thursday. It's that Two Shot Podcast time of the week and on this episode we're talking to the brilliant Mike Jibson. Mike is a real acting polymath, moving effortlessly between stage, the silver screen and television. You may have seen him recently in his Olivier Award-winning performance in Hamilton or in the films The Lighthouse, Les Miserables and Star Wars or on the telly in The Last Kingdom. Mike is a passionately honest person with an absolute devotion to his art. His approach to his own mental health and overcoming his obstacles is absolutely inspiring.

You might know Anjli from Jed Mercurio's brilliant drama Bodyguard or from ITV's Dark Heart amongst a bunch of other stuff. We met her in Maison Bertaux on Greek Street on a spring-like day where after a brief discussion on the nature of gratitude and moan about ungrateful road users, she and Craig got down to it. She's a brilliantly warm and genuine person with a brilliant outlook on life and we're sure you'll enjoy listening in to her story.Thanks a lot for being here. A bit of bad news here about the live show at the BFI - We’re so sorry to say that due to a personal issue, we’ve had to pull out of the Radio Times festival on April 14th.

We travelled down to that London again and met up with Tom in our Soho cafe of choice, Maison Bertaux. We talked social-media, scaffolding, stand-up comedy and Croydon. Tom's a belter of a fella with infectious sense of humour and a gift of yarn-spinning. It's a top episode with plenty of jokes.

Amy Booth-Steel
So here we are again... EPISODE 81. How’s your week been? Good? Not bad? Fair? Actually pretty bad? Well, put everything aside for a while and get in your podcast zone and do something for you. Forget about that email you have to send. Put down that phone and make that call later. Spend a little bit of time to listen to someone else’s story. Just for a while. It’s a funny thing. When booking guests to come on the podcast it can be: 1: people we know ( quite rare but still happens) 2: people we’ve never met before but may have heard of( almost all the time) 3: people we’ve never met but get recommended by people we do know ( sometimes) And now there’s a “4”....the complete accident ( this is the first time!) Craig stumbled across AMY BOOTH STEEL on social media. It was a video. A video of a young woman with a ukulele. She was singing a song. ....and that’s just the start...We got in touch as we thought her story should be heard and this seemed the perfect platform for to do it. We were right. Amy is total tonic and we think you’re going to love her. If you’ve seen her videos that have gone viral then you’ll understand....if you havnt...then you will...THIS IS EPISODE 81 OF THE TWO SHOT PODCAST with the INCREDIBLE AMY BOOTH-STEEL.

You may know her from her childhood appearances as George in T he Famous Five or on the big screen in The Black Dahlia , or on our TVs in Hex, As If and Lost in Austen amongst a myriad of other things. Jemima is a joy to be around and her contagious mirth is hard to resist.

Joseph Gilgun (Part 2)
This week we're celebrating some of the talented past TSP guests who've been recognised at this year's BAFTAs. This episode with Joe Gilgun first aired February 28th 2019 Nah then. How are you keeping? We've got another sequel for you this week. It's the return of one of Chorley's finest exports Mr. Joseph Gilgun! We chatted to Joe way, way back in 2017 ( click here to listen ) and the feedback we got from that episode was incredible. Joe doesn't do too many interviews so having the opportunity to sit down again and record was a real honour. When we spoke to Joe, he'd just wrapped from a hectic shoot on his own creation; the soon to be released series Brassic. He was just readying himself to travel halfway across the world to start shooting the next series of AMC's Preacher - A brutal schedule by anyone's reckoning. The episode finds him wrestling with his emotions. The brutality and honesty of his self-analysis is sometimes startling but they shine so much light on the human condition, it's impossible not to be completely won over. His unfiltered passion and storytelling ability is nothing short of spellbinding and the anecdotes are typically hilarious. It's a beautiful episode that we're so proud to be able to bring you.This is episode 78 of the Two Shot Podcast with Joseph Gilgun. Get in touch...

Tchéky Karyo
Bonjour TSP listeners. Hope you're well as you read this. We've got an absolute treat for you this week in the shape of a chat with the enigmatic actor Tchéky Karyo. You may have seen Tchéky in his role of detective Julien Baptiste in The Missing and Baptiste or in such films as The Patriot, Goldeneye, Bad Boys and La Femme Nikita. He has an incredibly impressive resume, but this being the Two Shot Pod we don't really talk about all that stuff. Tcheky is a passionate and deeply interesting person. His life-experiences of growing up in a melting pot of cultures and environments have moulded him into the wonderful person he is. Craig and Tchéky talk here about the brutality of school, the importance of bread and cheese, the power of avant-garde theatre, the human spirit, Paris in the 50s and 60s, and much, much more. It's a really beautiful episode and we're so proud to put it out.Enjoy episode 77 of the Two Shot Podcast with Tcheky Karyo. Get in touch...

You'll know Julie from The Bletchley Circle, Benidorm, Shetland, or William and Mary. She's top company and we were honoured to hear her stories. We're sure you'll share our sentiments.

Well what we've got here for episode 75 is the podcast equivalent. Well it's not really, but that is a dead good song. This week's guest is podcasting royalty. It's the multi award-winning Griefcast's very own Cariad Lloyd. Cariad is an infectious ball of energy juggling so many different and brilliant creative pursuits. She and Craig discuss acting, podcast life, improvisation, grief and so, so much more. You might know Cariad from the afore-mentioned Griefcast, or from her improvised comedy group Austentacious. You might know her from her appearances in Peep Show, Murder in Successville and Toast of London. You might also know her from her appearances on Would I Lie To You, 8 Out Of 10 Cats, Have I Got News For You or QI. Basically, she does a lot. And she always does it wonderfully well. And she's dead cool. This is episode 75 of the Two Shot Podcast with the brilliant Cariad Lloyd. Get in touch...

Steve Evets (Part 2)
Here we are again, and what a treat we have for you for our 74th episode. We’re always so chuffed when an episode connects with you. That can certainly be said for last year's STEVE EVETS episode. We had a feeling there was more to discover with Steve and decided to go back up North and meet with him again. We were not disappointed and neither will you be. If you’ve not heard Steve’s first episode then we urge you to go back and listen before you give this one spin. We pick up the podcast pretty much where we left off in part one but first we discuss Steve's recent health scare, a health scare that prompted a pretty huge lifestyle change for him. We must give a huge thanks to the Old Nags Head pub in Manchester for giving us a room to record this week's episode in. Another big shout out to past TSP guest JB Barrington for sorting that out for us. Top man JB! As a rule, we don't delve too often into “jobs” when talking to actors but on this ep Craig had to ask Steve about the job that pretty much changed everything for him and we get some remarkable stories because of it. If you enjoyed Part 1 with Steve then you better buckle up. Part 2 is an absolute belter. Enjoy. THIS IS EPISODE 74 OF THE TWO SHOT PODCAST & we move forward with another natter with STEVE EVETS.

Olivia Cooke
What's good TSP listeners? You are now tuned into the sound of the Two Shot Podcast and have we got a cracker of an episode for you today. It's a chat with the one and only Olivia Cooke! Liv joined us in an exceedingly retro hotel in Earl's Court and we had a proper good hour or two discussing her journey to becoming the actor and person that she is today. She and Craig talk growing up in Oldham, working in America, battling demons, therapy, levels of misbehaviour in high school, and loads, loads more. You'll know Olivia from Spielberg's Ready Player One, Vanity Fair, Bates Motel, Thoroughbreds, Me And Earl And The Dying Girl and The Limehouse Golem amongst many other brilliant things. She's an ace actor, an equally ace person and it's our pleasure to share this lovely TSP chat with you. In the intro of this episode, Craig mentions donating to our Patreon.

Eileen Walsh
How the devil are you? Keeping out that winter chill? Well, we’ve got something to warm you up. It’s EPISODE 72; a beautiful natter with the extraordinary EILEEN WALSH. She’s ace. Craig & Griff met Eileen in London direct from a spin class (Eileen’s NOT Craig or Griff’s) and they hit record and began the conversation. It was one of those recording days when the winter cold hit Craig so there may be a few sneezes and tissue drops but that won’t hinder this fantastic talk as you get to know Eileen. We want to thank everyone for the astonishing support from last weeks episode and more specifically Adam’s letter that was read out at the start. It’s seemed to strike a chord with many of you and your lovely messages to Adam were so touching. We know he appreciated all of them. Let’s keep talking.For now, let’s keep listening... to this...EPISODE 72 of THE TWO SHOT PODCAST with the incredible EILEEN WALSH.

S04E07 - The End Of Year Listener's Picks And Looking Forward To 2019
So. One year ends. Another begins. What a year 2018 was. We started with Greg Mchugh. We went to festivals. We did some live shows. We met incredible people. We won an award. We travelled around the UK. We laughed. We cried. We were shocked. We were in awe. We were inspired. We ended 2018 with the fabulous Jodie Comer. A huge thank you to YOU for the love, support & for spreading the TSP word. This is episode 70 where we asked you for your moments. You let us know and we got 'em all together including a few choice moments from Craig & Producer Griff. PLUS... we end this episode the way we started 2018... on a high. Hope you enjoy and we’ll be back before you know it with some incredible people telling incredible human stories. But until then... THIS IS EPISODE 70 of THE TWO SHOT PODCAST. ENJOY.

Jodie Comer
Well. Here we all are again. It’s episode 69. As this is our last episode of 2018 it seems only fitting to think about what an incredible year it’s been. We’ve been fortunate enough to sit down and meet so many extraordinary people who’ve been so open and so honest with sharing their stories. We wanted to thank each and every one of them. It isn’t an easy thing to come and meet up with (sometimes) strangers and discuss the deep, intimate parts of your life that can be, sometimes, very revealing... not to mention sharing those to the world!This year we won a British podcast award (We told you right?). We’re so honoured that TSP got recognised alongside so many other podcasts that we love. Do go listen to the many podcasts that made the list as they will all find a place that in your podcast library, we’re sure. As we say goodbye to 2018, it’s fitting we end as we started the year...on a high. We couldn’t think of anyone better to see us out than the brilliant human that is JODIE COMER. Craig & Producer Griff met in London (Earl’s Court) to meet up with Jodie and get their podcast on. It was Jodie’s very first podcast! We’re always so honoured when people want TSP to be their first podcast outing. We don’t think this will disappoint ONE. BIT. You'll know Jodie from her show-stealing depiction of Villanelle in Phoebe Waller-Bridge's incredible Killing Eve alongside Sandra Oh and former TSP guest Susan Lynch. You might also have seen her in The White Princess, My Mad Fat Diary, Doctor Foster, Thirteen and loads of other stuff. If you’re a big fan of Jodie, then after this episode you’ll be a colossal fan. She’s absolutely ace. What a perfect way to send off the year. Thank you all so much for an ace 2018. Have a beautiful Christmas. All our peace and love for the new year.

Jonjo O'Neill
What's good TSP listeners? Hope you're all feeling decent in these dark winter months. It's getting towards mid-December and we thought we'd invite you to snuggle down next to the podcast fire of episode 68. This week we were joined by top fella Jonjo O'Neill. Jonjo shared with us one of the most moving and spellbinding hours of podcast chat that we've ever been privy to. He's warm and candid and thoughtful and his story-telling and vocal tones are an absolute pleasure to listen to on this rollercoaster of a chat. Jonjo tells us of his life growing up in West Belfast, dealing with London life, his relationships with his parents and loads, loads more.You might recognise Jonjo from his work in the Pinter Plays at the Pinter theatre or from the final act of the magnificent Coen Brothers film The Ballad of Buster Scruggs amongst many other things. We can't thank him enough for coming on and sharing his thoughts with us. We hope it moves, excites and fills you with as much hope as it did to us. Enjoy...Here's some more information about the song Craig mentions in the intro to this week's pod. Please go and buy it when it's released on the 14th of December. * some great UK podcasts have got together to release a brand-new Christmas single, called 'Sounds Of Christmas' * The Podcast All-Stars include The Modern Mann, The Guilty Feminist, The Beef & Dairy Network Podcast, Answer Me This, Wanna Be, The Comedian's Comedian, The Two Shot, The Tip Off... and more! * proceeds will go to Samuel's Charity, which helps kids living in underfunded children's wards make their lives more comfortable (The Modern Mann spoke to the charity's founder last week for episode called The Empty Seat ) * to get into the Top 40 we need around 11000 sales; Ed Sheeran's no1 last year got 85k. It's entirely possible with our combined reach. * the Christmas charts are counted from 14th-21st Dec this year; so this is a strategic release * a sale is better than a play: it takes 100 streams to count as a sale. That's a lot of streaming over a week... so just part with 99p and help change lives! Get in touch...

Jenna Russell
THE COUNTDOWN HAS BEGUN! No, not Christmas...You have until the 13th of December to send in your BEST OF MOMENTS OF 2018. You can send us the time codes of favourite clips and we’ll put them into our special Christmas episode and GIVE YOU a shout out.Send em in on the socials (@twoshotpod) OR EMAIL: twoshotpod@gmail.com BUT BEFORE ALL THAT... It’s EPISODE 67This week Craig & Griff travelled to London for an intensive few days of recording, and first up was a blather with the incredible JENNA RUSSELL.Craig was working in London so they took advantage of having an apartment to set up the microphones in Earls Court. After a wander to find some below average breakfast it was time to go and meet Jenna. If you’ve been to the theatre in the past 20 years then there’s a pretty good chance you’ll have seen the amazing Jenna (sorry, that makes her sound like a magician. She’s not). Craig & Jenna get the kettle on, slice up some lemon drizzle and get down to the conversation. Craig & Jenna first met 20 years ago.Craig was woefully under qualified for his first job whereas Jenna was simply perfection. Needless to say they got on. The conversation flows and revelations pop up as we get to know, really know, the quite wonderful human that is JENNA RUSSELL. It was such a pleasure for us to have Jenna on and we think you’ll love this episode. Jenna is pure class. Enjoy. Get in touch...

A Bit Of Warmth On A Cold November Day.
Hello Two Shot Podcast listener people. Lovely of you to join us this week. Thank you. We've not got a full length chatty type episode this week, because honestly, we've run a week behind schedule. But rather than let you go without, we thought we'd bless your ears with this little slice of four-stringed joyousness that Craig happened across in a hotel in Lincolnshire. It's a lovely audio vignette that we hope brings 5 minutes of respite, pleasure and calm into your week. Can we please introduce you to " This week's guests " Get in touch...

Ralf Little
We KNOW. We know what you’re thinking...“Isn’t this supposed to be an episode nattering to TASH DEMETRIOU? YES. IT WAS. We had a leeeeetttlle tech problem. You best listen to the intro and all will be revealed. SO. Onto EPISODE 64. A few months back we received an invite to be involved with the first ever Manchester podcast festival and bring TSP to a live audience. Naturally we were extremely flattered to be asked and jumped at the chance of taking the podcast to a city we not only love but have recorded many an episode. Now it was time to find a suitable guest for our Manchester audience....Who better than a home grown favourite... we managed to get in touch with RALF LITTLE and he said YES. We had a lovely natter and it was also a long natter. So much so that we’ll do a part two in 2019. Ralf, as we’re sure you’re aware, first came to our attention as Anthony or “Lurch” in the classic and much loved, The Royle Family. Since then Ralf has been popping up in all sorts of telly stuff and has been seen on stage at the National and Theatre Royal Bath quite recently. He’s very honest about his past and how he was perceived by certain media and also where he is now. It’s a belter and the audience reaction on the night was electric. We were so chuffed to have past TSP guest and friend Argh kid perform some absolute beautiful words for us to open the eve and we cannot thank him enough. He’s a class act. (Bonus audio treats coming soon for Patreon donors) Massive thanks to MANCHESTER PODCAST FESTIVAL for inviting us for their FIRST EVER FESTIVAL and also to Ralf but a HUGE THANK YOU to the incredible audience for coming out to support us. Big love to you. Please enjoy. THIS is episode 64 of THE TWO SHOT PODCAST with RALF LITTLE. Get in touch...

Brennan Reece
Greetings Two Shot Pod listeners. Thanks a lot for joining us this week. We've had a sit down and brew and a cake with stand-up comic Brennan Reece! We travelled to Ziferblat in Manchester's Northern Quarter to meet Brennan, who was an absolute joy to be around. He's a affable type of guy who commands a room and can't resist an opportunity to bring a smile to your face. You might have seen Brennan doing his thing at the Edinburgh fringe or at one the comedy clubs he's had in stitches over the years. You might have even seen him in one of the acting roles that he's portraying since he was a wee un. Thanks a lot for listening. Hope you enjoy. Get in touch...

Jacob Anderson
Spooky seasonal greetings to you all. Hope you're all doing alright. This week on the podcast we are blessed with the company of artistic polymath Jacob Anderson; nom de plume Raleigh Ritchie. You'll have seen Jacob as Grey Worm in HBO's Game Of Thrones, alongside previous TSP guests on Broadchurch, in BBC2's Episodes , and in loads of theatrical productions. As Raleigh Ritchie, Jacob recently put out the frankly brilliant single Time In A Tree which if you haven't heard his music before is as good a place as any to start. Jacob is an absolute treasure. Candid and warm and humble. This episode captures him in a self-reflective mood as he shares his struggles, strifes and hopes. He's a thoroughly lovely human and we hope he captures your hearts as much as he did ours. Big love Jacob.

Marc Riley
It’s Thursday. It’s the podcast... How the devil are yer? Is it us or are these weeks zipping by? It’s episode 61 of THE TWO SHOT PODCAST and this week we head to MANCHESTER to get our podcast on with the man with no plan, MARC RILEY!!Craig & Producer Griff headed up to the musical capital and we’re welcomed into the very lovely ZIFERBLAT on Edge Street (free tea and cake there you know?) and met Marc to natter away all things Riley. Obviously they spoke about The Fall, MES, rumours, truth, record labels, DJs and how and why he used to be known as “Lard”. You’ll know Marc (depending on your age) as an ex-member of The Fall, a BBC RADIO ONE DJ & one half of MARK & LARD, or, as BBC RADIO 6 MUSIC DJ where Monday to Thursday he hosts his own show and picks his own favourite artists to come and play live in his studio. In recent weeks he’s had TSP favourite BILL RYDER JONES in for him. It was, of course a beautiful set from Bill. Marc has belting taste in music you know. We have to say, Marc is cracking company and this shines throughout this episode and we can’t thank him enough for coming on and also for his support of the podcast. By the end of this episode you’ll understand why it’s pretty much ok NOT to have a plan in life. We really hope you enjoy this episode. We loved meeting and chattering with Marc. He’s tip top.

Holli Dempsey
Whattup, whattup! It's our diamond episode and have we got an absolute diamond for you. It's the wonderful actor Holli Dempsey! You might know Holli from Ricky Gervais' Derek or from her role as Vera in Dad's Army or from her starring role in Harlots amongst loads of other ace stuff. We met Holli in our basement / dungeon recording studio at Soho's Maison Bertaux and we had a chat. A lovely, lovely chat. Holli was so honest about her upbringing and childhood and working life. It was enlightening and charming and a bit sad all at the same time. She's a fiercely strong woman with a great outlook on life and we're sure you'll love listening in to her Two Shot Podcast episode. TWO SHOT POD T-Shirt Design Comp!

J.B. Barrington
It's double drop week at the Two Shot Podcast and here's your second downloadable dose. It's time to ditch the prosaic and enter the lyrical world of Mr J.B. Barrington. J.B. is a proud Salfordian who speaks his drawl with pride. A poet by trade of the performance variety. He's got stories galore and Craig and Griff went over to the East Riding of Yorkshire to commit them to tape. If you've seen Reverend and the Makers live recently, or Sleaford Mods, you may have seen J.B. taming the lions in the crowd. His aura and Gallagher-swagger make him the perfect warm-up act for any band worth their salt.The podcast opens and closes with two of the blazing poems you're likely to hear on his tours. Visit the JB Barrington page to see where you can catch him next. Hope you enjoy the pod.Get in touch...

Nick Payne
DO NOT ADJUST YOUR FEED.Yep. This is THE TWO SHOT PODCAST. No. It’s not Thursday. We thought we’d do a TWO EPISODE TWO SHOT PODCAST WEEK! Why? Why not. Let’s kick it off shall we? This week we travel to London to meet the incredible writer NICK PAYNE. Maybe you’ve seen Nick’s plays over the years at the Bush theatre, The Donmar Warehouse, perhaps the Royal court. Maybe even on Broadway. Well, lucky you if you have cos he’s a class writer. Recently you may have been glued to BBC1 watching his series WANDERLUST that’s coming to an end very soon. Or maybe you’re one of those people who’s saying it’s “filth” or “I didn’t pay my TV licence for this!” Well, it’s always good to get a reaction eh?If you haven’t seen it THEN DO. IT'S CLASS!! Catch it all on BBC iplayer in the uk and soon to be on NETFLIX. Craig sat down with Nick in London and that’s where they began the natter. Are we a nation of prudes? Do people jump on the bandwagon to complain about so-called filth without having seen it? They discuss so much more to about what makes Nick tick and the differences between writing for theatre and the pressures of creating a full series for TV. It’s a cracking natter and we’ll sure you agree that Nick is great company...Just to say that this episode was recorded solo as Producer Griff was up north but the difference in sound is down to Craig and his Zoom H5 which doesn’t have the slickness as norm but we know that after 10mins or so your ears will adjust and you’ll be grand.Enjoy. This is episode 58 of the Two Shot Podcast with Nick Payne.Photo credit - Evening Standard (Sorry, we didn't get any piccies this week as Craig was flying solo). Get in touch...

IT'S THURSDAY... IT'S THE PODCAST...Well, since we announced on Sunday who was joining us, there’s been a real buzz. We don’t blame you. We were thrilled to bits to sit down with Jodie in our podcast Soho base that is MAISON BETAUX and got the tea in (and also a scone). Or a scon. Or even a scurn (that’ll make sense soon) and we got right into it. Jodie has been proper busy speaking to all sorts of press in the countdown to the DR WHO launch in Sheffield but she made time to come and meet Craig & Griff and have a proper natter. Jodie is, as you’ll hear, a breath of fresh air. She’s honest, naturally hilarious and a real Yorkshire woman through and through. It was a total joy to have her on. LESS WAFFLE. MORE CHATTER. I know that’s what you’re thinking. In fact, are you still reading this? RIGHT. LET'S. GET. OUR. PODCAST. ON. THIS IS EPISODE 57 WITH JODIE WHITTAKER.ENJOY.Get in touch...

Susan Wokoma
Alright Two Shot Pod listeners. How goes? Hope you're all feeling reasonable or better this week. We've got a treat in store for you in the shape of an absolutely top chat with Susan Wokoma ! You might know Susan from her appearances in Chewing Gum and Crazyhead or more recently her brilliant comedy short Love The Sinner for Sky. We met up with her in the basement room of Maison Bertaux in Soho and after Craig had told the unusually raucous patrons upstairs to keep the noise down, we got down to it. Susan talked movingly about her life growing up with immigrant parents, about being skint, about gentrification in her beloved London and about loads and loads more. It's an absolutely spell-binding hour or so that we're sure you'll find inspiring, heartbreaking and hilarious in various measures. Thanks a load for listening and if you enjoyed it, why not tell your pals. Especially those who don't ever listen to podcasts. Show 'em that glorious little purple app on their iphones that's a portal to unparalleled audio riches. Get in touch...

We announced that Karl would be joining us on Monday, as we always do (what? You don't know that? Check your social media!) and since then anticipation has been building for episode 55 and to hear more of what makes Karl, well... Karl. Craig & Producer Griff travelled south (London's soho to be exact) to meet Karl at the hotel he was staying in. Tea was ordered, microphones were set up and we hit the record button. It's a bit of a podcast of two halves this really. Craig and Karl start off by having a bit of a moan about all sorts of stuff (well, it was quite early in the morning) and then just before it turns into a full whinge about the state of everything they think is wrong, it's a hand brake turn into Karl's life and his past and what's happening right now. Actually while you're here... what's happening right now is this: https://www.skygroup.sky/corporate/media-centre/articles/en-gb/meet-karl-in-first-look-trailer-for-new-sky-one-comedy-sick-of-it Karl's done with all his travel show stuff and now he heads into sitcom territory with a show cowritten by himself and long term collaborator RICHARD YEE. 'SICK OF IT' starts sept 27th at 10pm on Sky 1 & NOW TV. And before you ask, no, we havnt been sponsored by Sky One. We just like Karl and happen to think his show is dead, dead good. Oh, and there may be a TSP connection for the very first episode of his show... Hmmm. It's a very, very entertaining episode that we loved recording. Karl is an absolutely brilliant fella to spend time some time with, so sit yourself down and strap yourself in. Really hope you enjoy. THIS IS EPISODE 55 OF THE TWO SHOT PODCAST WITH KARL PILKINGTON.

Bill Ryder-Jones
Alright. Hope you're well. Nice one for getting onto this episode of the podcast. It's episode 54 and it's a beautiful chat with Bill Ryder-Jones. Bill is a musician from down the East Lancs road and if you've not already listened to his stuff then you're missing out. We'd recommend starting with with 'if...' which is an absolute masterpiece of jaw-dropping scale. 'West Kirby County Primary' is absolute class too. And have a look at his new video Mither here - Basically, listen to it all. It's all boss. Bill is a true artist and a properly fascinating person. He talks with Craig about creativity, mental states, loss, friendship and loads more. It was an absolute privilege to listen in on it and we hope that you get as much from it as we have. If you do, it'll stay with you.We recorded this one in Manchester at the lovely Ziferblat on Edge Street in the Noirthern Quarter (Nice one to Ziferblat for being ace and finding us a room).

Siân Gibson
HOW THE DEVIL ARE YOU?... ahh, it feels good to be back and OFFICALLY start the new term doesnt it? This week we hopped in the car and went up the road to Manchester, sat down and set up in the lovely Ziferblat on Edge Street in the Northern Quarter and were joined by the infectiously lovely actor and comedian Siân Gibson! We spent a magical hour or so drinking brews and discussing uncomfortable auditions, castings, family life, fallow periods and Wales. You'll know Siân from loads of telly programs, most notably playing Kayleigh Kitson in the BBC sitcom Car Share which she co-wrote with Peter Kay. Siân's outlook on life is completely inspiring and she shares the ups and downs of her acting life with wonderful charm. We loved it and we hope you love listening too. We've got a bunch more excellent TSP eps in the can now and we can't wait to share them with you. TSP thursdays are back in effect!!! Get in touch...

Andy Ellis
Yes, Yes, Yes! The Two Shot Pod is back and all up in your podcast feeds. Hope you've all had a lovely summer and are hungry for some more intensive TSP audio content. We're here to provide just that. This week is an episode we recorded in front of a live festival crowd in the magical Tim Peaks Diner at the fabulous Kendal Calling festival. We had the pleasure of spending an hour with Mr. Andrew Ellis. Andy is a Manchester lad through and through and his self-deprication, humour and humbleness are an absolute winning combination of traits. You'll recognise him as Gadget from Shane Meadows 'This is England' film and subsequent television series as well as loads of other televsion and film appearences. It's a great chat that turned a raucous festival crowd to rapt attentiveness and that's all down to Andy's great storytelling and sincerity. We're out recording around the UK again really soon and after another week's break (sorry) we'll be back to bringing you a fresh helping of TSP goodness every Thursday morning. Get in touch...

It's almost like we planned it!We met with The Reverend Jon McClure (and a silent Ed!) at Jimmy's bar in Manchester just before they were off to house party -not one of those- it's one where Jon and Ed go to a fans house and play an acoustic gig. Nice eh? You'll know Jon as the lead singer in the band Reverend & The Makers along with Ed and also his wife Laura. We chatted with Jon just after the release of their new album, The death of a king. We talked all things Sheffield, growing up, the music industry, fans and doing things his way. Jon's got bags of energy and oozes charisma and if you've ever seen the band live then you'll know what we mean! He's a top fella and you're gonna love hearing this episode.Grab yourself a brew, or something stronger (It is our birthday after all!), pop your feet up and get on this.

Charlie Cooper
HAPPY THURSDAY!!! IT'S OUR PODCAST BIRTHDAY!!!That's right. Can you believe it's a whole year that we've been bringing you episodes? What a year it's been! We've met some incredible people, heard amazing stories, we've laughed, we've cried and drank many cups of tea along the way. It's been a rollercoaster of a year and we're so grateful you've enjoyed and supported the podcast - THANK YOU! As it's our birthday, we thought we'd do something a bit spesh and bring you not 1 episodes but 2! Nice birthday treat, eh? We kick things off with the brilliant Charlie Cooper. If you've seen BBC's award winning THIS COUNTRY then you'll know Charlie as one of the writers and stars. Charlie writes with his sister Daisy May Cooper based on where they grew up in a small village in Gloucestershire. It's a brilliant, hilarious and sometimes heartbreaking series and if you haven't seen it then do yourself a favour and get involved.When, a few months back, we were invited to bring the podcast to the wonderful Bath Festival, we wanted to try and get a local guest on, so Charlie was the perfect fit and lucky for us, the stars aligned and dates worked out and this is the result. Craig and Charlie sat down with a sold-out crowd in the beautiful city of Bath on a rainy evening and the conversation began. Think you're gonna love this one. We certainly did. We chatted about all sorts and began with the subject of male models...THANKS SO MUCH FOR DOWNLOADING AND WE'LL SEE YOU IN A BIT FOR ANOTHER BIRTHDAY EPISODE!!! Get in touch...

Dave Haslam
HERE WE ARE! It's Thursday and it's EPISODE 45 of THE TWO SHOT PODCAST. This week travel north to sit down with legendary DJ & author DAVE HASLAM!!A few months ago we got a call telling us that THE CHARLATANS were doing something pretty unique. They were going to put on a takeover in NORTHWICH, which is where they have recorded many of their albums and consider it a second home. They were going to play 4 gigs over over 4 nights with a different set each night and then stream the gig all over the world. Pretty special right? They would also have other bands play and also a very special exhibition. They asked us if we'd like to be a part of it and host two LIVE episodes with an audience for each. We were lucky enough to bag our first guest in he shape of DAVE HASLAM and then our 2nd guest came on board and that was PADDY CONSIDINE. It was going to be a busy day. Thankfully we made it work and the audience came (if you were there, then thanks for coming!!) and it was a pretty special day. We'd been talking to Dave for just under a year about coming on so we were thrilled we could make it work for this and can't thank him enough for coming on. CHEERS DAVE !!We begin by chatting about where he started. Moseley, Birmingham. We also get treated to the man himself reading a piece from his memoirs, SONIC YOUTH SLEPT ON MY FLOOR (good title, eh?)You may have got down to Dave spinning tunes in the past but now here's a chance to get to know the man himself. ENJOY!! (Producer Griff says apologies for the sound this week. Whilst the venue was really cool, there are cosier aircraft hangars; which is why it sounds as if God himself is speaking. A few de-reverb modules were tried but it all sounded a bit digitally warpy so it was left as is. Sorry) Get in touch...

Meera Syal
Greetings Two Shot Podcast listener. Hope you're very well. This week we are joined by some real acting royalty in the form of Meera Syal. We sat down with Meera in the basement of Maison Bertaux (What! You've not been yet!? You definitely should very soon) and we talked about her childhood in Wolverhampton, sleeping in a draw, parental support, the dawn of proper British Asian comedy and loads and loads of other stuff. You'll know Meera from her pioneering work alongside former TSP guest Sanjeev Bhaskar in television institutions Goodness, Gracious Me, and The Kumars at Number 42 or more recently in her brilliant role in The Split. She has a myriad of writing, authorship and acting credits to her name and the story of how she came to be where she is today is as spectacular as her artistic achievements. She was an absolute pleasure to be with and her confidence and positivity are a complete inspiration. It's a wonderful listen and we really hope you enjoy. Dunno if you heard but we won a bloody prize. We are now the proud holders of a British Podcast Award in the 'Best Culture Podcast' category. Whilst the supportive messages we get on a daily basis from you, the dear listeners, are why we do what we do, it's always lovely to have your work recognised at a do where they give you champagne as you go in.

What's good TSP listeners. Hope you're all very well. This week sees another Two Shot Pod first. We travelled to Liverpool to have a sit down with the inimatable Ingrid Oliver... in front of other people!! That's right, this is a recording from our first live event.

Tom Stocks
Here we are. IT'S EPISODE 31! Thanks so much for downloading and subscribing. Means the world. This week we're joined by TOM STOCKS.It's actually quite rare that we chat to people who get in touch with us, we don't want people to feel that they have "sell" anything or have any sort of agenda, you know? We want people to come on and feel free to talk and also feel it's a safe place to do so. This episode is a little different as Tom did get in touch and we had a look at what he did and thought it would make a perfect platform for him to talk. These things could easily go wrong as it's one take. One chat. Luckily it all paid off.We went to meet to Tom in the lovely walls of MAISON BERTAUX on Greek Street in Soho, London (go check it out - the cakes! The cakes!) and we spent a great time nattering about his struggles and upbringing to where he's at now and well, why don't we just let him tell you?

The first part of episode 29 took us to Stockport to have a sit down and fruity tea with with none other than Chrissy Bottomley. Chrissy is an absolute pearler of a human being. She welcomed us in to her home, gave us nocellara olives and made us feel fully welcome before she sat down with Craig to have a great chat about her life and her views on all things thespian. It's a really great forty minutes or so which we're sure you'll thoroughly enjoy. We then made a trip down to Sheffield (Snakes Pass was closed - bleughh) to have sit down in a Crucible Theatre green room with the fantastic Remmie Milner.

Hello Two Shot Pod listeners. Thanks for downloading. You are all absolute champs. This week on the podcast we have a lovely chat and a (Yorkshire strength) brew with Rebecca Callard. Rebecca is an actress. You may have seen her on the telly back in the day when she was in The Borrowers, The Grand and Sunburn or more recently in the acclaimed BBC4 comedy The Detectorists. But... this being the Two Shot Podcast we don't talk about that much. Rebecca is an absolute diamond. She came to meet us in the Maison Bertaux patisserie in Soho and we had a right royal chinwag. Rebecca talks candidly about nerves, Yorkshire, parents and defying Dame Judy Dench. It's a really great chat and brings this year's TSP interviews to a close in fine style. We can't thank you listeners enough for the support and love you've shown over the past few months since we put the first episode out. It really is massively appreciated.

We cannot believe that it's episode 20! Flown by right? Well, we thought we'd mark the occasion by getting the magnetic DANNY MAYS in for a pot of tea and good old chin wag! We're so glad we did cos this is a very special episode with one of the UK's finest (not to mention, funniest) actors. You'll know Dan from all sorts ranging from his BAFTA nominated turn as Danny Waldron in series 3 of Line Of Duty to his role in Mrs Briggs and on the big screen in Dad's Army and most recently The Limehouse Golem . It was a pleasure to get the kettle on and spend time with Dan. You may think that Craig just knows Dan from Line of Duty but their friendship goes way back 15 years to when they used to be flatmates (stories from those wild days can be purchased for the same price as Da Vinci's Salvator Mundi). Thanks so much for downloading and supporting us at TWO SHOT PODCAST, it's very much appreciated.We really hope you enjoy AND... make sure you stick around for the end as we have some very exciting news that you're gonna want to hear.

Craig & Producer Griff travelled to London to spend some time with Andy and have a brew and a natter. I think you're gonna like this one. It's a very positive chat with Andy. His love for all things 'acting' shines through this episode. We cover all sorts of stuff whilst being welcomed into Andy's "museum"... that will become clear, hopefully, when you hear the episode and see some of the photos and videos we took. You'll know Andy from all sorts of films & tv such as Kick Ass 2 , Charlie Brooker's Dead Set, His writing with Derren Brown, and all sorts of theatre that Andy has been involved with over the years. Of course, this being TSP we don't even discuss any of that! We had far too much else to talk about during our time! We hope you enjoy listening it as much as we did making it.GET. YOUR. PODCAST. ON... WITH TSP.All the love.

Sanjeev Bhaskar
Here we are again. Thanks for coming on board! Episode 11 is here and this week, Craig & Producer Griff travel to London meet up with the mighty SANJEEV BHASKAR. We talk, drink tea and eat some very delicious cake provided to is by Sanjeev's lovely wife MEERA SYAL (massive shout to Meera, that was some banana bread!) You'll know Sanjeev from his groundbreaking work in Goodness Gracious Me , The Kumars At Number 42 and most recently Unforgotten . We're thrilled that Sanjeev wanted to come and have a TSP natter. Again, it's a very honest chat and one in which Sanjeev certainly doesn't hold back. There's laughs, of course, but also some very touching stories of childhood and the tensions he experienced growing up. All in all, it's another banger and we couldn't be more proud to have him on.We really hope you enjoy. Big love, Craig & Producer Griff.

Joseph Gilgun
This week we're celebrating some of the talented, past TSP guests who've been recognised at this year's BAFTAs. This episode with Joseph Gilgun first aired September 14th 2017. Alright. How’s it going? Thanks loads for downloading and listening. Here we at our tenth episode. La Decima! We’ve got something special for you this week... it’s a Two Shot Podcast chat with the one and only Joseph Gilgun. You might know him as Woody from Shane Meadow's This is England, As Rudy Wade in Misfits alongside our host Craig, as Eli Dingle in ITV's Emmerdale, or morer recently as Cassidy in AMC's Preacher. Joe is a special character. A rakish raconteur with a passion for making people piss their pants laughing. He wears his feelings on his sleeve and his disarming honesty and endearing vulnerability really make this an unmissable episode. We talk about drama school, dyslexia, family, anxieties and growing up in a Lancashire town. It’s a wonderfully frank hour or so and if there’s not at least one moment that doesn’t make you laugh out loud then we’ll give you your money back. Enjoy. It’s Two Shot Pod number ten with Joseph Gilgun. We're a brand new podcast and need all the help we can get to get our episodes heard.

Thomas Turgoose
How the devil are you? Good week? We hope you're well and looking forward to EPISODE 9 of The Two Shot Podcast. We're thrilled that we can bring you a conversation with the one and only Thoms Turgoose! Craig & Producer Griff were all set to jump in the motor with the mics to meet Tommo in his home town of Grimsby but, an actors schedule is never set in stone and all three of us managed to meet for brew and a chat in London just before Tommo was heading to a premiere. Yes, it's a shorter than normal episode (BOO!) It is however a very open and honest chat and very entertaining (YEAH!). We cover Loads with Tommo; education, grief, support, partying, commitment and building bridges. We cover so much in our short time together it actually felt like a normal length episode... We here at TSP are very proud to have had a sit down with the lovely Tommo. He's a proper gent, not to mention an honest and toptop actor. We hope you enjoy. We certainly did.

You may know Maya from her fabulous work in Line Of Duty or C itizen Khan or possibly from her writing work on The Kumars, Mount Pleasant and Eastenders . We get the kettle boiled and the tea bags in (two English breakfast & one green tea since you asked) and get down to business talking all about Maya growing up, her very supportive parents, writing & acting and loads more in between. As usual it's another great & insightful chat; a little bit like two pals down a pub and you just happen to be on the next table listening... not in a weird way... just overhearing... not being nosey or anything... oh you know what we mean.Enjoy.

Michael Smiley
Here we are again. It's episode seven of the two shot podcast! Our guest this week is the actor, stand-up comedian and raconteur MICHAEL SMILEY. Craig & Producer Griff met with Smiley in London and after a not so successful coffee order for Smiley (don't ask!) we popped the kettle on, had our selves a brew (very successful!), sat down and dived in.You'll know Michael from playing the part of 'Tyres' in the acclaimed sitcom Spaced , and from his work with Ben Wheatley in Kill List, A Field In England and most recently Free Fire to name but a few. But of course this is the Two Shot Podcast so we like to delve a little deeper. We get to hear about his growing up in Northern Ireland, moving to London, becoming a father and turning from cyclist into a stand up and eventually an actor.It's a really great chat and one we're proud to add to our library here at Two Shot. We really hope you enjoy it. We're a brand new podcast and need all the help we can get to get our episodes heard.

Danny
Happy Thursday! Hope you're all well. Here we go again. It's episode six! I say "here we go again" but this weeks guest is surprisingly different. Different in that usually, we tell you who it is and a little bit about them. Can't do that this week. Our guest wants to remain unnamed and this is something we respect on the Two Shot Podcast. For those of you who don't know (and why would you?) we give each guest freedom of edit which means they can talk freely and openly without consoring themselves and feeling inhibited during the chat. Once we've recorded and producer Griff has worked his magic in cleaning it all up and making it sound super sweet, we offer our guests the chance to have a listen and check that they've not said anything they're not comfortable with. In this instance, due to what our guest does for a living now, it made total sense.It's another great story and one we're pleased he agreed to chat about.Get the kettle on and let's get going.

Kate Ashfield
Greetings Two Shot Pod listeners. It's that time of the week again and this time it's the turn of the magnificent Kate Ashfield. Craig and producer Griff took a trip to the Big Smoke and visited Kate in her super-cool East London flat. They talked drama groups, risk-taking, balancing writing and acting, and Gary Oldman's school reports. It's a fabulous chat. You'll know Kate from her brilliant portrayals in Shaun of the Dead , The Little Life, and Late night Shopping, or her myriad appearances on the stage and screen. She's a wonderful and inspiring woman and we hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we had making it. We're a brand new podcast and need all the help we can get to get our episodes heard.

William Ash
Episode 4. EPISODE 4! ALREADY! That's right. We're a month in and it's flying by.This week Craig & producer Griff travelled to Oldham to pop the kettle on with professional northerner WILLIAM ASH!! Once the tea was brewed we got right down to business. We talk about loads with Will; from football to broken legs to ending up in the "Children's Ward". You'll quickly learn that Will has both feet firmly rooted in the North West. You'll know Will from Clocking Off, Waterloo Road, Where The Heart Is and Shameless amongst many other television, stage and film appearances. It was a real pleasure to have a sit down and a chat with him and his insights and passion for his job were so great to listen to. This is another episode that we here at TWO SHOT we're immensely proud of... well, we're proud of all of them, otherwise we wouldn't send 'em out to you. We're thrilled you're with us, but we're still only starting out here, so if you're enjoying the series, PLEASE take a few minutes to review us and rate on whatever platform you listen to us on and tell your mates about us.

You well? Hope so.It's episode 3 and this weeks guest is multi award winning actor (not actress.....that bit will make sense when you hear!) SUSAN LYNCH... Producer Griff travelled to the Cotswolds whist Craig travelled to his living room to have a sit down with Susan...and this week it's craig & producer Griff who get gifts at the top of ep. Thank you Susan!We all thought it may have felt slightly odd sitting down and discussing stuff but the conversation flowed and even Craig learns and hears things he never knew.....you all know why, right? Susan Lynch is Craig's wife of 12 years. Did you already know that? Well now you do.Susan talks openly about her childhood in Northern Ireland, and the support and stumbling blocks she overcame with great honesty and passion. It's a fantastic episode and we're thrilled she agreed to be on... she could've said no!Susan first came to the public's attention in one of her first television roles, starring alongside Robbie Coltrane in CRACKER. Since then she has appeared in many theatrical productions, ranging from plays at the National Theatre, The Royal Court, the Old Vic and also THE BEAUTY QUEEN OF LEENANE at the Young Vic. Susan's passion is of course, film. She worked with Johnny Depp in the cult picture FROM HELL and worked twice with celebrated writer and director John Sayles. You may have more recently caught Susan in the award winning HAPPY VALLEY, where she shocked the nation by... ah well, I won't say just incase you havn't seen it. We really hope you enjoy it! TSP.

Neil Morrissey
Here we are again! It's EPISODE 2 of THE TWO SHOT PODACAST. After a triumphant opener last week with Nottingham's First Lady, Vicky McClure, this week Craig & producer Griff travel from East Midlands to the great city of Manchester to get the kettle on with the deliciously eloquent and brutally honest NEIL MORRISSEY. Depending on your age you may know Neil's work from Boon, Bob the Builder and Men Behaving Badly. More recently he has appeared in the BBC's Waterloo Road and Line of Duty, BUT this being THE TWO SHOT PODCAST we don't discuss things like that. We go back to start as Neil talks (frankly) about his start in life. From being up in court at a very young age to arriving at drama school with just a bag and a few jumpers. The amazing thing about Neil is is positivity that has never wavered through this life. We adore this man. We adore this episode and we hope you do too. It's brilliant! Please note: As this is a no holds bar chat, there is some fruity language from the outset. If you're listening in the car and the kids/parents/grandfather/grandmother/godson/goddaughter/sensitive-eared pet are in the car with you, you might want to lend them some earplugs. Failing that, stick your headphones into Episode 2 of THE TWO SHOT PODCAST with NEIL MORRISSEY. We're a brand new podcast and need all the help we can get to get our episodes heard.

Vicky McClure
Here it is! The first episode of the Two Shot Podcast: a podcast about actors and acting. Our host Craig Parkinson and producer Griff went down to sunny Nottingham to have a brew and a chat with the actor Vicky McClure. Vicky was honest and frank about her early years as an actor in her local drama workshop and getting her breakthrough roles, and she talked openly about her route to becoming an actor. Vicky first came to prominance in Shane Meadows' brilliant film A Room for Romeo Brass before going on to star as Lol in the iconic This Is England . She has since appeared in acclaimed television series including the BBC's Line of Duty (alongside our host) and the Replacement , ITV's Broadchurch and the films Filth, Hummingbird and Svengali.
