Summary

*This is part 2 of Alex Vlahos’s episode. Though you are free to listen in whichever order you so desire we really do recommend listening to part 1 first or things might be slightly confusing*

Experts on Shakespeare will know that in his first draft of Hamlet the famous quote read “To beer, or not to beer: that is the question”. Had William not changed that line then Hamlet might have gone on to be the ultimate pub play; and we’re certain that this week’s guest would have ended up performing the lead role. It’s actor Alex Vlahos!

Alex has starred in everything from Versailles to Pobol y Cwm, as well as performing on stage alongside the likes of Kenneth Branagh. I wonder if Robin will be able to convince him to tread the boards of The Moon Under Water and share a little performance with us.

1:09.6	Thanks, John. Yes. So question one was how many times is the
1:13.8	F word used in Scarface? What do you reckon, Alex? I've gone for around 300. Three hundred. Nice.

1:40.4	which is where Blink 182 got the name from, but I don't know if that's true.
