Summary
Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!
This week Pip is joined by writer, actor and director CRAIG ROBERTS!
For those who know their cinema and tv, you’ll surely be well aware of Craig and his back catalog of goodness but if not, at the very least, you must have seen at least the cover for the film Submarine… Either way - you’re in for a treat of a chat with the Welsh sureshot himself as he goes into it all with Pip. Everything including growing up in Wales, acting origin stories, sounding toooo Welsh, directing and doing so during a pandemic, being on both sides of the camera, the great Mark Rylance, the also great Shaheen Baig (rapidly becoming the DPP godmother), the scourge of over-rehearsing, Richard Ayoade, and golf! Be sure to catch Craig’s film ‘Phantom Of The Open’ too - do not miss that one.
