Hello, I'm Craig Parkinson and this is the two-shot podcast of The Catalan and let's dive in.

0:07.0

Hello. Yeah, I know. It might not be Thursday. It might be. I don't think it will be, but you know, it's a new episode of The Two-shot podcast and that's what we want.

0:37.0

Isn't it? Are you well? I think it's good.

0:44.0

You don't answer all at once. It's okay. You know, we can just take time and roll this over. We're all still unsure.

0:55.0

We're trying to get these new episodes out here as soon as we can and this week it's with the incredible actress from Monter and Charlene McKenna.

You're going to know Charlene from loads of things. She's been cracking the whip for a long time.

1:20.0

Most recently, Pinky Blinders and right now on BBC Northern Ireland in Bloodlands with the very lovely Jimmy Nezbert.

1:31.0

I didn't know Charlene. We hadn't met. We had worked together. We just got down to it in West London via a quite dodgy computer link and out of chance.

1:49.0

So I really hope you enjoy this episode. What else? The good thing is we're going to end season 10 on a high in November.

2:04.0

Possibly later. Let's see how we get on with in person episodes. That is, when I say in person, I mean myself.

2:15.0

Producer Griff and our guest and it's going to be a joyous end to the season, which has been somewhat bumpy and rocky to say the least.

But that's just because you know, things are busy and we try our best and you know that.

2:36.0

And we want to say thank you so much for your continued support on social media. But more importantly, on Patreon, because you give that gift of money each month that supports us that one, two, three pound, whatever it is you do, it really means a lot.

3:21.0

Right, it's, it's nearly eight o'clock and I'm going to go to my bed because I'm terribly tired. So until next week, I am going to have to sign off and can't do an outro because I'm dying on my feet.

3:38.0

But this is the two-shot podcast with the incredible Sean McKenna.

3:51.0

Okay, and I've had record and now we're all good. Now, how do we do our podcast voices?

3:59.0

We don't do a pie. We just, I mean, we could start it like that. Charlie, I don't know.

4:06.0

You're listening to two shots.

4:08.0

You see, that's what I need. I need everybody to do a little eye dense for it. And then we said, hi, I'm Charlie.

4:15.0

I was just doing them for the last show I just wrapped on and I would bother.
