Adam chats to Danny Beard about Savage, a new play about the life of Paul O'Grady.

Adam’s special guest is Ru Paul's Drag race UK winner and Britain's Got Talent semi-finalist Danny Beard. He's just been announced as the lead role in Savage, a new play about the life of Paul O'Grady and his legendary drag creation Lily Savage. It's coming to Canterbury's Marlowe Theatre in 2027.

Adam also chats about local wine with Sam Caporn, author of 'English Wine: Your Essential Companion'.
