Summary
RHLSTP #613 - Predicting the Future with Urine - Richard is at the Podcast Room with the one-of-a-kind diamond that is Ronni Ancona. They chat about the disappointments of the Blue Peter studio, performing together at the Edinburgh Fringe 1992, how Ronni`s unlikely professional partnership with Alistair McGowan bore fruit, even after their romantic relationship had ended, having a part especially written for her on Eastenders, working with the amazing John Sessions, failing to impress her kids with her social media successes and producing movies with Sally Phillips.
