A real-life Dame and a fictional Lady - Eileen Atkins and Adjoa Andoh, Bridgerton’s Lady Danbury - pair up to discover they’re kindred spirits, with a surprising amount in common. Their wide-ranging conversation takes in Eileen’s working class roots, her pushy stage mum, a naughty deception that paid off at the Guildhall, the letters of Virginia Woolf, co-creating two TV juggernauts - Upstairs, Downstairs and The House of Elliot, and how to stay young and limber; and Adjoa’s teenage yearning to be on the stage, quitting her Law degree to follow her dreams, her textbook 80s life on the road with a feminist touring company, the magic of actors and audiences coming together in theatre, and the joy of Shonda Rhimes.


Introduced by Samantha Bond. Music by Dan Gillespie Sells.
