It's Kate's sister from another Mister - Sam Janus!
Sam & Kate have been friends for YEARS and in this beautiful catch-up they talk about being a famous woman in the 90s, families, cancer and Sam's motorhome.
Samantha Janus was at Sylvia Young's legendary school or acting and dance in a class that included Nicole and Nat Appleton, Keeley Hawes and Emma Bunton. Kate's been friends with this collection of incredible women since the 90s and there are more than a few stories in this episode about this friendship group.
There's a LOT to get through.
Cheers! xx

LIVE EPISODE: Cruising with Harriet Scott, Heidi Range and Jenny Powell
A very special episode this week!
A couple of weeks ago we took White Wine Question Time to the high seas - on board an Ambassador Cruise to Amsterdam. In front of an audience of 750 passengers we went back to our original format of three friends, wine and three thought provoking questions.
As part of our 500th episode celebrations we were thrilled to invite Heidi Range, who appeared in our very first podcast, back for a chat as well as Jenny Powell (also one of our OG's making her first appearance in episode #4) and debutant Harriet Scott from Magic Breakfast.
It was such a success we're already planning more floating podcasts for 2027, and a massive thank you to Ambassador Cruise Line (https://www.ambassadorcruiseline.com/?utm_term=ambassador%20cruises&utm_campaign=Search+-+Brand+UK+%28mCPC%29&utm_source=adwords&utm_medium=ppc&hsa_acc=146566557&hsa_cam=13137008520&hsa_grp=129241671104&hsa_ad=716083787472&hsa_src=g&hsa_tgt=kwd-28522872380&hsa_kw=ambassador%20cruises&hsa_mt=e&hsa_net=adwords&hsa_ver=3&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=13137008520&gbraid=0AAAAABY5IqglNRqG7aI0I67dfB8_lE3z8&gclid=CjwKCAjwgJHXBhBGEiwAHohJq2Er5BKMWNE6P-YloVkyoZfrhgI4c2bV8Fu5S3Z5WJpmB5EoP7W7IBoCnOcQAvD_BwE) for sponsoring this episode.
Here's to the next 500!
Cheers,

NEW EPISODE: White Wine Legend Oz Clarke
Without Oz Clarke there might not be a White Wine Question Time. Is possible we'd have called this podcast Gin & Tonic Question Time (Coming soon to a podcast platform near you!) It's absolutely fair to say that Oz, alongside Jilly Goolden, changed the we we drink. But wine tasting was a skill and hobby he'd developed at Oxford University and he was well on his way to becoming a West End Star when opportunity knocked on the 80s TV show 'Food & Drink' thanks to the television brain of Peter Bazelgette (who later went on to turn Big Brother into an enormous hit).
This is a fascinating story, told by one of the great story-tellers. If EVER there was an episode to listen to with a glass of white wine THIS IS IT!
Oz's new book A Vine is a Wild Thing (https://www.ozclarke.com/products/a-vine-is-a-wild-thing-the-iconic-guide-to-grapes-growers-and-gloriously-good-bottles-oz-clarke-9780008774479/) is out now!
Cheers,
