And also, it's about one year since I've started this process of doing this podcast.
Ben HanlinHOST

so later on in this episode i'm going to be really honest with you and tell you what's going on behind the scenes of what's the trick and how it's really going so let's start with our first guest henry lewis now henry lewis is a co-creator of the mischief theater company they're the company that create uh the play that goes wrong peter pan that goes wrong magic that goes wrong and a bunch of other shows and their story is amazing so to bring you quickly up to speed on henry In 2008, he was at Lambda Drama School in London.
Ben HanlinHOST
1:39
He met two friends, Jonathan Sayer and Henry Shields.
Ben HanlinHOST
1:43
They eventually then lived together in a flat after drama school.
Ben HanlinHOST

It won't be good, but it will be something that you can improve on.
Ben HanlinHOST
3:03
So that was my takeaway.
Ben HanlinHOST
3:04
But let's have a listen to the conversation that we had in London when I sat down with Henry Lewis.
Ben HanlinHOST
3:12
Where do the new ideas start to come into your brain?
Ashley TuckerGUEST
44:44
Because there is, I don't know if you've seen a massive change, but certainly it feels like since you've had all the stuff on the telly and the TV show and whatever, there's a massive uptick in the amount of people that know who you are.
Ashley TuckerGUEST
44:54
I've been out with Henry Lewis on tour, and my female experience of being, have things shouted out of a car window as someone drives past is quite different to what happened to me
Charlie RussellHOST

Henry Lewis for God of Mischief? LAUGHTER I think God of sleep, but maybe you're like the God of a good night's sleep.
Chris MackrellGUEST
40:04
You've already mentioned James Spader.
Chris MackrellGUEST
40:05
The people that I was not expecting to be here were Jonathan Sayre and Henry Lewis from Mischief Theatre, who are playing two of the AIs inside the world.
Chris MackrellGUEST
40:14
I always like them and stuff, so it'll be weird seeing them in that.
Chris MackrellGUEST
40:17
They're normally very over the top, so I think there'll be some fun in here.
Rosie KnightHOST
6:31
... who were played by them.
Rosie KnightHOST
6:32
So you have Ola Brady as F.R.I.D.A.Y., Henry Lewis as DOOM or DUM-E, uh, Jonathan Say as U, Agent Carter star James D'Arcy, who everybody loves as Jarvis because obviously Paul Bettany was the original Jarvis.
Rosie KnightHOST
6:44
And the one person we didn't see, which I thought was really interesting, no Jocasta, who we know is pla- being played by Tonia Miller, who I love.
Rosie KnightHOST
6:51
So that hints to me that she's probably gonna be a much bigger part in the show.
