This week I was joined among the sunflowers by the fabulous Nina Conti! Ventriloquist, writer and director, it was so lovely to catch up and reminisce over our first meeting in Edinburgh many moons ago. Nina is back up at the Fringe next week with the delightfully named Nina's C*nti Cabaret, and do also catch her brand new film Sunlight, available now on Prime Video. We chat the snobbery of theatre, monkey business in New Mexico and the shininess of the 80s ladybird. We also briefly discuss growing drugs in our back garden, which is neither medically nor horticulturally accurate. So yes, take off that monkey suit, pour yourself a refreshing drink and settle in for another dose of Pottering. 🪴 Watch on YouTube and Spotify, or listen wherever you get your podcasts.

This week, I am joined in the garden by the incredibly talented and absolutely joyous Anna Haugh! Irish chef, restaurateur and MasterChef judge, Anna brought with her the most wonderful selection of goodies, which were, unsurprisingly, delicious. ️ Warning: this episode may make you rather hungry! We chat about the importance of seasonal farming, the role Anna’s Irish heritage has played in her culinary career, and what it’s like working in a professional kitchen. So, can openers in hand, aprons on... Ready, Steady, Pottering! 🫑 Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Welcome back, dear friends, to my garden for another series of Pottering! The sun is still shining, my Pinky Winky are in bloom, and I have a whole host of fabulous guests for you to enjoy. ️ This week, I am joined by the ever-delightful Jake Lambert! A hilarious comic and one of life’s marvellous eccentrics, you may be familiar with his splendid social videos or his global stand up success, and it was such a pleasure to invite him into the garden. We chat school bullies, Bee Movie and meditation. And do listen out for some sage advice from Jake on avoiding mouth ulcers. Yes, Pottering is educational too. Now, prep the ice bag, pop the kettle on, tea bag in for three minutes please, and join me for some Pottering. 🪴 Watch on YouTube and Spotify or listen wherever you get your podcasts.

More from me in the garden this week, just pottering away, but normal business will resume next Thursday! Yes, we’ve been busy behind the scenes getting everything ready, and I cannot wait for you to see who we’ve got coming up. ️ It is truly such a delight doing this podcast, and I do hope it brings some joyful calm to your commutes, your kitchens, your garden paths, or wherever you find yourselves listening. Please do tell your friends about our quiet corner of the podcast world. Everyone is welcome in the garden. It is a calm and gentle space, pigeons and planes aside, but I would so love you to shout about it. So, pop those parasols up, grab some crisps and dips, and let’s go Pottering. 🪴 Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Another week and more musings from the garden! While Pottering enjoys a small summer sojourn, I’m bringing you another collection of my favourite moments from the series. Clippings, if you will. This week, we’ll be joined by Alan Carr, Kiri Pritchard-McLean, Sarah Hadland, Ashley James, Ginger Johnson, Henry Agg, Sara Cox and Philippa Perry. From horticultural heroes to dear comedy colleagues, there really is something for everyone! We discuss lunar mysteries and Mary Berry memories, Strictly secrets and drag delights. We explore the highs and horrors of social media and hark back to the humble fax machine. A simpler time. So, slather on the Factor 50, shoo those Cabbage Whites away and join me in the garden for some Pottering. Do like and subscribe to keep up to date with all things Pottering! And why not send me your garden pictures over on Instagram? I’d love to know how your cavolo nero has got on. 🪴 Watch on YouTube and Spotify, or listen wherever you get your podcasts.
