Advertise on podcast: Beyond The Title

For epsiode 5 of our anniversary series, we welcome back the writer, actor and comedian Jeff Stevenson to share more memories of our time together

For the fourth episode in our anniversary series, we welcome back a true favourite and a broadcasting titan as Matt Everitt reflects on his broadcasting career.

In 2018, I was lucky enough to welcome the legendary writer and broadcaster Dame Esther Rantzen to the podcast for a celebration of her life and career. In the wake of her passing, I take a look back at this episode and examine her legacy.

Founding member of the 90s soft rock band dodgy, Matthew Priest has been a regular on the podcast, almost since the beginning. Therefore, it would have been a crime not to welcome him back for one of our 10th anniversary episodes.

Ventriloquist and comedy historian Steve Hewlett has become something of a regular on the podcast over the years, appearing an astonishing four times since February 2018. Our mutual passion for the golden years of Variety has been the recipe for some fantastic moments on the podcast, whether it’s been celebrating the late Ken Dodd in a special lockdown episode or taking to the stage at Gurnard Pines on the Isle of Wight to celebrate his comedy heroes. As part of the tenth anniversary of Beyond The Title, I caught up with my close friend to celebrate his journey. Let’s welcome back Steve Hewlett.

Writer, author, puppeteer and Impressionist Steve Nallon first graced the Beyond The Title microphone back in the autumn of 2017 when we were just a year into the podcast. Fresh from the acclaimed Jonathan Maitland play Dead Sheep in which he reprised his iconic Spitting Image role as Margaret Thatcher, we spoke of his extraordinary journey from the 1970’s working men’s circuit to being at the cutting edge of the satirical boom of the 1980’s. Since we last spoke, Nallon has released his debut children’s novel The Time That Never Was followed by a collaboration with Beyond The Title royalty Dick Fiddy for the sci-fi celebration Destination Time Travel. As part of our 10th anniversary celebrations, I caught up with beloved friend of the podcast to share memories of the past 10 years. Let’s welcome back Steve Nallon.

Star of stage and screen Craig Kelly takes us on a whistle stop tour of his career in entertainment from a memorable cameo in Titanic to the critically acclaimed Channel 4 drama Queer as Folk.

Writer and broadcaster Nicky Campbell reflects on his career in broadcasting which has spanned over 40 years. From the experimental days at Capital Radio, to becoming one of the most trusted voices in the UK, he takes us on a journey through eras, mediums, and stars.

Writer, broadcaster and documentary maker Nikki Fox began her career as a reporter for BBC Radio Cambridgeshire before winning a position on the Channel Four training scheme which resulted in her working as a researcher on Gok Wan’s landmark series How To Look Good Naked. Born with Muscular Dystrophy, Nikki has used a wheelchair for the majority of her adult life. In 2014 she became the BBC’s disability correspondent, covering stories of diversity and equality. Just a year later, Fox won a New York Festival award for her Radio 5Live documentary Learning To Walk Again before joining the team on the consumer affairs programme Watchdog. I caught up with the award winning broadcaster to talk; legs, legends and her hopes for the future. Ladies and gentlemen Nikki Fox

Singer/songwriter Rick Witter found fame in the mid nineties as the frontman of the soft rock band Shed 7. Formed in York in 1990 Shed 7 originally comprised of Witter on vocals, Joe Johnson on keyboard and guitar, bassist Tom Gladwin and Alan Leach on drums. Their debut album Change Giver was released in September 1994 in the midst of the beginnings of Britpop and was the perfect soundtrack to a changing Britain. Yet it was Shed 7’s follow up album A Maximum High which would cement their status as indie icons with timeless hits including Standby. This was followed by the 1998 album Let It Ride featuring the timeless track She Left Me On a Friday. I caught up with the evergreen rocker on the set of Shed 7’s performance at the Isle of Wight Festival to talk; eras, gold and his recollections of a life in music. Ladies and gentlemen Mr Rick Witter
