Walking The Dog with Emily Dean

Cherry Healey (Part One)

Listen on

Episode notes

This week on Walking The Dog - we’re joined by TV presenter and queen of documentaries, Cherry Healey! 

Raymond is recovering from feeling a bit under the weather this week, so we spoke to Cherry from home… which meant we got to meet her spectacular Maine Coon, who is fabulously named House Party. 

Cherry grew up with dogs, but in her adult life she’s been a cat owner. She tells us the heartbreaking story of losing her beloved cat Party Time (yes, another fabulous name) and her childhood dog Mouflon, who she describes as a 'layered being'...

We also find out how Cherry thrived at boarding school, how she feels about being popular and whether being beautiful can be a curse.

The ninth series of Inside The Factory will be out on BBC One in early 2025!
