This week, I welcome someone particularly special into the garden,
Uncle Andy! A close family friend, Uncle Andy was the first person
I knew who worked in the glittering world of show business and, to
a tiny Tom Allen, proof that a life on the stage was
possible! We chat about his extraordinary years in the
theatre, from eight shows a week with Angela Lansbury to working
with THE Barbra Streisand. We also delve into Polari, the realities
of being gay in the performing arts and take a truly delightful
trip down memory lane. I do very much hope you enjoy! So, curtains
up! Grab yourself a freshly squeezed orange juice, settle into your
finest chair, and come Pottering with us. 🪴 Watch on YouTube and
