  • Indira Varma
    Jun 24 2026

    This week the brilliant Indira Varma joins us for brunch. Known for her roles in Game of Thrones, The Night Manager, The Capture and now starring in the all-female production of Glengarry Glen Ross at The Old Vic, Indira popped over to New Cross and immediately became one of our dream foodie guests! We heard all about growing up in Bath with an Indian father and Swiss mother, the cabbage and peanut curry her dad taught her to make, working with friend of the podcast Ralph Fiennes, how theatre still gives her a thrill after all these years, and we are reminded of the best tip from Stanley Tucci when it comes to drinking cocktails! Plus Indira takes us through a spectacular last supper featuring deep-fried ricotta, spaghetti vongole, Swiss fondue and an ice cream finale. Don’t miss Indira starring in Glengarry Glen Ross at The Old Vic until 18th July, she is absolutely excellent in it.

    In Strictly fabulous news, this week we’re joined by dance goddess, Oti Mabuse! Oti was beloved on Strictly Come Dancing in the UK, but she is also now head judge on the Irish version Dancing With the Stars - on top of that she is an author, presenter, podcaster and this week she has announced the wonderful news that she is pregnant with her second child! We heard all about Oti growing up in Pretoria and the delicious South African food her family would cook, being a destined dancer from age 4, competing in Blackpool from age 11, being best mates with gorgeous friend of the podcast Johannes Radebe, having more than double the invited guests turn up to her wedding, eating shark in Iceland, plus we discover the real meaning behind the name Oti! Thanks for popping over Oti, we can’t wait to try a traditional ’Seven Colours’ dish when we see you next. Oti’s latest book ‘Slow Burn’ is out now.

    The fabulous Jeff Goldblum pulls up a seat at the table this week. In the midst of his whirlwind tour of promoting his brand new album, Night Blooms, Jeff popped over to New Cross for lunch. A master storyteller, we heard about Jeff’s love of working in the UK, how he met his contortionist wife, why filming Wicked made him pescatarian, the food his family cooked while growing up, and we find out the answer to the ultimate question - ‘at what age should you show your kids the Jurassic Park films?’. Jeff is about to embark on a UK & European tour, including a night at the gorgeous Royal Albert Hall on the 30th June, don’t miss it! The brand new album Night Blooms is available now.

Absolutely love this podcast, love the banter and love between Jessie and Lennie. I love the sounds of the kitchen, fire alarms, postmen, and the capers of Prince the cat too. Genuinely lovely and down to earth people with great, recipes, fantastic guests and a peep into some of the most fabulous people in a way you'd never hear them talk in a traditional interview set up. I want to sip bubbles with Jessie while diving into a dish of Lennies chicken soup. LOVE, LOVE, BLOODY LOVE THIS PODCAST! xo

I'd love a seat at the table!!

Jessie has done everything and been everywhere her guests have been. And don’t we know it. Totally annoying. Talking over guests and gushing and waiting for the praise. Just let your guests talk without you having to top their story. I may be alone on my thoughts. The guests are fabulous. But they are shunted into the corner while mum and daughter faf about and talk about themselves. Not my cuppa.

Annoyingly over talking
