#3 Sanjeev Bhaskar
Sanjeev Bhaskar is a national treasure, first shooting to fame with his comedy gold: Goodness Gracious Me and The Kumars at No. 42. Now best known for his long-standing role in Unforgotten, in this episode he takes the opportunity to discuss Ayub Khan Din's massively popular play East in East. Lucy and Sanjeev chat about his journey with understanding Shakespeare, how he learnt to access stories that were removed from his cultural background as a young boy and just why East is East cracked the mainstream market so successfully. With shout-outs to Yasmina Reza's Art, Michael Attenborough and Paul Schofield, this chat is a sumptuous journey through theatre history that eventually winds its way towards a conversation about incredible screen work and what was so remarkable about Charlie Chaplin's The Great Dictator climax. Hosted by Lucy Eaton, theatre producer and West End & screen actress best known for her role as Lucy in hit comedy ‘Staged’. Other episodes include Blackadder’s Tim McInnerny, James Bond’s Toby Stephens and Olivier award winning writer Jack Thorne.
