Welcome to Crushed by Margaret Cabourn-Smith - the podcast about unrequited love.

As a festive treat, we present to you a brilliantly honest episode of Crushed with the magnificent comedy legend that is ARABELLA WEIR. 

This conversation is as funny as it is wise – and it is really funny. And so therefore it is really wise.

Arabella can be seen the Two Doors Down Christmas Special on BBC iPlayer and The Fast Show 30th Anniversary Tour continues in 2026 – you can find out where and when here.
