On The Ropes Returns
>> John Humphrys returns in the interviewer's chair
John Humphrys returns to Radio 4 this morning with a new Series of On The Ropes. In each episode of this programme Humphrys chats candidly to a high-profile figure who has, at some point, hit rock bottom or fallen completely from grace.
Even if you're not familiar with the interviewee, Humphrys' entertaining and outspoken manner makes this first-rate listening.
The series kicks off at 9:00 this morning and features "fat" chef Clarissa Dickson-Wright. Humphrys chats with Dickson-Wright about her upper-class yet violent childhood, her fall to chronic alcoholism (half a bottle of vodka before breakfast!) and her rise to a television programme that was watched by over 70 million people that world over and was subtitled into Inuit!
The 9:00 programme is repeated at 21:30 and is also available through the Listen Again feature on the Radio 4 website.
