Episode notes

HELLO! We might have reached the bit in lockdown where we’re all cutting our own hair with the wild abandonment of a drunk sheep shearer, but episode 5 is here as a tea break from all of that. And it’s a good one. My conversation today is with Tracy-Ann Oberman (Friday Night Dinner, Toast Of London, Doctor Who), who is just a glorious person. So warm and interesting and she, correctly, takes her tea very strong.

We spoke about the effects of lockdown on work in a really honest chat. She spoke about cancelled projects and adjusting to the new world, and how she’s still managing to film a new comedy drama direct from her home. She’s one of the hardest working actors out there, and three of her shows have landed all at once – Friday Night Dinner, After Life and Code 404. We speak about them all, plus Doctor Who in lockdown and a new Russell T Davies project.

We reached the top 100 in the Apple Podcast charts last week for TV & Film, and that’s all down to you for sharing and subscribing. Just recommending this pod to one person helps so much. There are some excellent guests lined up in the next few weeks, and I can’t wait for you to hear our first international edition soon. Follow @QuaranTeaBreak on Instagram, Twitter and Facebook. See you very soon, and please stay indoors.
