Summary

I’m revisiting some of my favourite episodes this Christmas. This week it’s Jamie Dornan, whose episode went out when we were in deepest, darkest lockdown, on 24th November 2020. This is what I wrote at the time: You’ll know Jamie from starring on our screens in The Fall, Fifty Shades of Grey, and more recently The Tourist. He joins me to talk about failures in acting, failures at school and a failure to sit still. We also discuss growing up in Northern Ireland at the height of The Troubles, male objectification, the death of his beloved mother from cancer at the age of 16 and the loss of four friends in a car crash shortly afterwards. We talk about grief, therapy and what it means to be a father. And we talk about why he walks on his tiptoes.

0:00.0	This episode is brought to you from Ancient and Brave. Now, I always get asked about what my wellness
0:06.0	routine is, so I want to let you in on my secret, which is Ancient and Brave's true collagen.
0:12.6	These days, we're all aware of the benefits collagen has for your nails and your skin. But did you know,
0:17.9	it's also an incredibly powerful way to support your body's internal systems.
0:22.7	Everything from your joints and your muscles to your bones and even your gut benefits from
0:27.4	regular consistent collagen intake. I've been taking it for a while now every single day
0:32.9	and I really do feel so much better in myself and it is true that it has a glowing impact on
0:39.2	skin. My go-to collagen is Ancient and Brave's true collagen. It's totally odeless and tasteless,
0:44.9	so it's been very easy to add into my morning juice. The health benefits it offers are both
0:49.9	holistic and far-reaching. What's more, Ancient and Brave are proud members of 1% for the planet,
0:56.1	meaning 1% of all their sales go directly to environmental causes. So by adding true collagen
1:02.4	to your wellness routine, you can take care of yourself and the planet too. For more details,

1:25.3	Hello, it's Elizabeth here, and to continue my seasonal offering, here's another of my favourite
1:30.6	How to Fail episodes from the archive. This time, it's the wonderful Jamie Dornan, which was
1:37.1	recorded in November 2020. I adore this episode for a number of reasons. One is that Jamie Dornan turned up to my house,
1:46.5	and that's in and of itself is a course to celebrate, but also it was one of the first
1:52.3	interviews that I recorded in between lockdowns, where we could finally do it face to face
1:58.6	as long as we kept a social distance. So that was very special.
2:02.5	And then the other special thing about it is that we discovered we had so much in common.
2:06.2	Jamie Dornan and I actually went to school together at the same school in Belfast and we share
2:11.2	some really interesting memories about that time. Thank you so much for listening. I hope you
