Our Guest President this week, leading the members Tony Slattery’s Rambling Club, is none other than the BAFTA winning writer of Motherland and Amandaland Helen Serafinowicz! Come and join in as guest President Serafinowicz leads us on a ramble through three special destinations chosen entirely at random with the use of Tony’s enchanted bingo machine. As ever, the omniscient voice of Sir Stephen Fry is on hand to keep a hand on the tiller of the toss!
First stop is destination number 752: Colour. How do we know that dogs see in black and white? How can colour influence creativity? How do you compose a sitcom as part of a collaborative? Time to delve straight into the creative process!
Next we're heading toward 427: English Language Variations. A ramble through the amazing variations of language across these islands and how to avoid showing your own background when writing. Tales of the Belle Vale Shopping await along with a reminder not to take sweets from strangers!
Every now and again we're reminded that the Dewey Decimal System is a little bit antiquated. Hence number 139 and Phrenology being our final destination! Witches, birch twigs and Scottish hangover cures come up for discussion, along with a reminder of what makes Dame Joanna Lumley so very special!
After all that it’s time to head back down the garden path to Tony’s shed, to relax and enjoy a restorative bacon toastie and a pint of Irn Bru!
You can see Helen's brand new play The Legend of Rooney's Ring at the Royal Court Theatre, Liverpool, until August 23rd, no matter what it says on the side of the buses!
Grab your tickets here-> https://liverpoolsroyalcourt.com/main_stage/the-legend-of-rooneys-ring/
Tony Slattery’s Rambling Club is a free-associating conversation, involving very special guests. It drops every Friday on every podcasting outlet known to man. We’d love it if you came along for the walk. If nothing else, it’ll help you get your steps in!
