Sturgeon, Salmond & Vladimir Romanov // with Phil MacHugh
Manage episode 406162340 series 2522913
Phil and Martin Compston are back on the BBC with Martin Compston’s Norwegian Fling, their second series together, where they travel across Norway and experience some of what the country has to offer.
In this episode, you’ll hear Phil talk to me about how going to Gaelic school set him on an interesting and unique career path...
I find out how an innocuous conversation led to the commissioning of the programme, and what the experience was like…
And Phil talks about working alongside Nicola Sturgeon and Alex Salmond in the run up to the 2014 independence referendum, starting his own thriving PR company, and a bizarre period where he coached Vladimir Romanov. That’s Vladimir Romanov, the enigmatic and volatile former owner of Hearts football club, as he competed in the Lithuanian version of Strictly Come Dancing. Stay tuned for a genuinely world exclusive revelation on that one...
And as always, there's plenty more.
