Better Under Pressure - A podcast by Sara Milne Rowe
Categories:
Today I’m talking to award-winning actor, comedian, and writer, Hugh Dennis. Best known for BBC1’s critically acclaimed sitcom OUTNUMBERED, he has also played an emotionally tortured Bank Manager in the BAFTA-winning show FLEABAG, Toby in the sitcom, NOT GOING OUT, and was an ever-present panellist on BBC 2’s long-running weekly satirical show MOCK THE WEEK. Hugh has also been a regular for over 25 years on BBC Radio 4, both writing and presenting their Friday night comedy THE NOW SHOW. In our conversation, Hugh (whose real name is Pete, by the way) shares…- Why he thinks allowing a bit of self doubt is a good thing.- How his job at Unilever helped keep him grounded- And what having a bishop for a father taught him about performance.
