Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

021 - Truss in the Process with Nerine Skinner
Q: What's your best moment on stage?
At the Camden Fringe last year, I did my first ever Work in Progress hour show, and it felt like a real achievement.
021 - Truss in the Process with Nerine Skinner
Q: What can you reveal about the audition process for Britain's Got Talent?
You only see the bits they want to show you, but there are a couple of rounds beforehand. There's a team of researchers that sort of look for people.
021 - Truss in the Process with Nerine Skinner
Q: How do you find, because you've obviously done stand-up before as Nerine Skinner, how different is it to being somebody else on stage?
It's easier, I find it easier being a character on stage, maybe because I've spent so long either creating them with the work that I've done musical theater-wise, or in the past with acting.
026 - Grief, Gags and Guffaws with Daniel Cohen
Q: So where did it start for you, as in the comedy, not that night?
I signed up to a comedy school and did a course, motivated by a lot of pain and trauma in my life, including the loss of my wife.
022 - From the Set to the Stage with Becky Jade
Q: What do you want your walk on music to come on to before you grab the microphone?
I would either go for 'I'm Every Woman' by Shaka Khan or 'Silly Boy' by Lynx, depending on the tone I want to set.
