Show Notes
It’s not every day a certified LEGEND like Richard E. Grant comes round for a chat on my sofa. Nicknamed the ‘Kindest Man in Hollywood’, he is an Oscar-nominated actor who starred in blockbusters like Withnail & I, Dracula and Saltburn.
We covered everything from his turbulent childhood, losing his wife Joan of 38 years, being betrayed by a close friend - oh and Richard’s love of the Traitors. Richard also got a reading from my favourite tarot card-reading drag queen Miss Leigh Ding!
Also, I still can’t believe he bumped into Olivia Coleman on the way here?!
Thanks so much to @miss.leigh.ding for the amazing tarot!

You might know telly LEGEND Davina McCall from Big Brother, but I grew up working out to her fitness DVDs in my student flat, lifting tins of baked beans 😂
