Show Notes
A listener revisits her hospital experience in a pandemic…
Thanks A Million listeners share their “Thanks That Got Away”! The people you never got a chance to say 'thank you' to. The people who changed your whole life or outlook and you didn’t get the opportunity to tell them. Now is your chance!
Perhaps it was a stranger on the bus who picked you up when you were down? The holiday romance that taught you what true love could be? Or the ex who taught you what it definitely wasn’t? Maybe it’s the sibling you never appreciated until it was too late. The nurse who cared for you in your darkest hour or the friend who opened your eyes to the beauty of the world...
Over the years I’ve learnt just how wonderful it feels to say those two simple words ‘thank you’, and how a simple act of gratitude can have truly transformative effects far beyond anything you can imagine. So write to me – tell me your stories of the thanks that got away so it might inspire us all to take a moment and reflect on those who deserve some gratitude.
To get your story featured just email no more than 600 words to: [email protected]
You can be kept anonymous if you prefer, but it’s finally a chance to let it out, hold back no more and share that thank you which you never got to give!

More from Angela Scanlon's Thanks A Million
This Halloween - there’s a peek behind the curtain for you! - I had the pleasure of chatting with the hilarious Alan Carr. On this episode, Alan tells me about when a well-timed stomach bug resulted in his first big break, as well as the time he sort of went off with Amy Winehouse’s Q Award.
Today’s guest dialled in all the way from Los Angeles - that’s right! We’re international like that. In this episode London Hughes chats to me all about making it big in America and everything that led up to her hilarious Netflix special, To Catch A D*ck - which involves a pit stop at Phoebe Waller-Bridge’s Fleabag, and a detour in Edinburgh! She also tells me about what it was like being bullied at school, getting fired from T. G. I. Friday’s, and her first foray into the world of stand-up.
Rylan and I caught up backstage at the RTE studios in Dublin. Life has been a bit hectic of late, but it was an absolute joy chatting with Rylan. He’s funny, he’s witty and down to earth - what’s not to love? Listen for his genuinely game changing bit of advice, as well as his love actually running through the airport moment at age 9.
Today, I had a lovely old chinwag with Ella Mills, the founder of Deliciously Ella. She is such a serene presence, honestly, talking to her was so grounding and calming. We chatted all about her experience with illness, the story behind Deliciously Ella, and we had a bit of a bonding moment over our excel loving husbands. Tuck in!
For today’s show, I was joined by the glorious Rob Rinder. It was an absolute delight, sitting down and chatting with Rob - I mean, you will not believe the STATE of the object he’s most grateful for. Shocking, sorry Rob. This was a really lovely chat, honestly, I could listen to him talk for days, he has such a way with words.
