Hilary and Michael are an entertainment power-couple.

Having worked as a leading theatrical agent and producer for many years, with clients including Nigel Havers, Judi Dench and Colin Firth – it was at a glitzy party that Michael first set his eyes on the then actress Hilary Gish

Hilary says of that night...“I was looking for an agent, he was looking for a wife.”

They’ve gone on to have three children together, including the actor and comedian Jack Whitehall, and in recent years they’ve turned their family life into an entertainment empire.

As well as starring in their own Netflix series, hosted TV and theatre chat shows, and co-authored books...their podcast, The Wittering Whitehalls, has added yet another string to the brand Whitehall bow.

So, we invited Michael and Hilary to share their Inheritance Tracks with us...

Michael Inherited: Symphony No.3, the 2nd movement, composed by Sergei Rachmaninoff Hilary Inherited: Let's Dance by David Bowie Passing on: Blue in Green by Miles Davis

Producer: Ben Mitchell
