Summary
On this week’s venture into our WWQT cellar, we’re ringing in panto season in style!
Graced by the presence of our pantomime godfather Christopher Biggins, he dives into some of his most cherished memories of his nearly 60 year career and the dazzling stars he’s met along the way. We also hear from triple threat extraordinaire Bonnie Langford on what it was like working in panto during covid and how her beloved dog got her through. And we also look back at our chat with all round man of the stage Les Dennis on the formative experiences that shifted his perspective on his definition of showbiz success.
You can listen back to these episodes in full right here: Christopher Biggins, Bonnie Langford and Les Dennis.
