Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Aaron Fleming: From Life-Changing Lung Surgery to Two Decades of Ironman
Q: Talk to me about that side of your journey.
Fleming began questioning and exploring his identity in his early twenties. He says that being comfortable and proud in his own skin helped him understand that living authentically felt right, even though he had to help others understand.
Aaron Fleming: From Life-Changing Lung Surgery to Two Decades of Ironman
Q: How did you even get into a place where you were able to go out for a light jog, jump into the swimming pool, begin that process of just accessing sport in any way?
After about five years, he carefully began exercising, starting with a short run and half a pool length. He was dealing with mental health struggles and recovering from surgery, but gradually listened to his body and kept going.
Off The Pitch: Peter Ruddick on BBC Breakfast, Broadcasting and Being His Authentic Self
Q: What was yours like?
Ruddick describes growing up gay in the 1990s, when Section 28 shaped the climate around coming out. School PE and sport made him feel conspicuous, and he later developed a more positive connection with sport through Rainbow Saints and Southampton Football Club.
Off The Pitch: Peter Ruddick on BBC Breakfast, Broadcasting and Being His Authentic Self
Q: How did you get that foot in the door?
Ruddick wrote to local television and radio presenters seeking advice, attended an open day at South Today, and followed guidance to study a subject and pursue postgraduate training before finding work at the BBC.
Matt Carter: The Legacy of In From The Side, A Potential Sequel, and The Enduring Impact It Has
Q: How long does it take to get that out of your system? These characters you've lived with, this film you've lived with for such a long time.
Carter initially felt the film had completed the story, but audience requests for a sequel led him and co-writer Adam Silver to develop a possible continuation. They have considered a TV series and are now exploring a feature film, though funding is a challenge.
