On The Box: The BritBox Podcast

Edith and Michelle go deep on Belfast's answer to The Wire as they’re joined by Declan Lawn and Adam Patterson, the creators and writers of BAFTA-winning Northern Irish crime drama Blue Lights. Don’t miss as Adam and Declan break down how working in investigative journalism built their burning passion to tell real stories, how all good creative partnerships start with karaoke, why women are just more impressive creatures, and the deep-rooted Northern Irish love of Country & Western.   Hosts: Edith Bowman and Michelle Collins Producer: Rajiv Karia Production Co-ordinator: Caroline Barlow Mix Engineer: Arlie Adlington Theme music by Dario Forzato and Canio Claudio Tristano, courtesy of 411 Music   Production Manager: Mabel Finnegan-Wright Production Executive: Ian Heydon   Executive Producers for BritBox: Alana McGaughey and Diane Robina Executive Producers for BBC Studios: Pete Strauss   A BBC Studios Production for BritBoxSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Michelle and Edith fill us in about their recent trip to New York before they're joined by actor Leo Suter (Vikings: Valhalla) to talk about his role as the dashing gentleman inspector in new BritBox series Lynley. Leo shares how even the sexy scenes on TV aren’t as glamorous as they seem, his grueling lockdown workout for Vikings: Valhalla, and why he’s the only guy on set who can touch Lynley’s Jensen Interceptor car… and why he looks like a lovechild between Hugh Grant and Eric Bana.   Hosts: Edith Bowman and Michelle Collins Producer: Rajiv Karia Production Co-ordinator: Caroline Barlow Mix Engineer: Arlie Adlington Theme music by Dario Forzato and Canio Claudio Tristano, courtesy of 411 Music   Production Manager: Mabel Finnegan-Wright Production Executive: Ian Heydon   Executive Producers for BritBox: Alana McGaughey and Diane Robina Executive Producers for BBC Studios: Pete Strauss   A BBC Studios Production for BritBoxSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Strap in for a must-listen episode of On The Box, as Edith and Michelle are joined by BAFTA® Rising Star winner Mia McKenna-Bruce for an unfiltered and laughter-filled chat about all things telly. Mia shares all about her role in BritBox's new gripping drama The Lady and a very exciting glimpse into the set of The Beatles film, as well as hilarious stories about getting outwitted by a toddler, getting a therapist who understands the industry and how the best way to get into character is hypnotizing yourself.   Hosts: Edith Bowman and Michelle Collins Producer: Rajiv Karia Production Co-ordinator: Caroline Barlow Mix Engineer: Arlie Adlington Theme music by Dario Forzato and Canio Claudio Tristano, courtesy of 411 Music   Production Manager: Mabel Finnegan-Wright Production Executive: Ian Heydon.   Executive Producers for BritBox: Alana McGaughey and Diane Robina Executive Producers for BBC Studios: Pete Strauss   A BBC Studios Production for BritBoxSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
