Simon CallowGUEST
And Tony Hancock, when he had retired from making the television programmes and went out as a comic on the road, did exactly that.
Simon CallowGUEST
But when you actually look at what Rawton does, it's just...
Simon CallowGUEST
So delicate, so delicate and so tender, which is the most unexpected thing.
Brett OrchardHOST
It's called The Publicity Photograph Podcast.

Abigoliah SchamaunHOST
I'm expecting line flubs.
Abigoliah SchamaunHOST

David BramwellGUEST
Again, we know that there is something profound in that performance.
David BramwellGUEST

Simon OwensHOST
And it is good to be back.
Simon OwensHOST

Simon OwensHOST
