Larry Lamb: Gavin & Stacey, Christmas, and saying goodbye to your kids

from No Parental Guidance · host Hannah East & Louise Boyce

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas!  In this very special festive episode, Hannah and Louise are joined by a true national treasure—Larry Lamb. Known for his iconic roles in Gavin & Stacey and EastEnders, Larry sits down with us to talk about the "gift of parenthood," the reality of being a "boomer," and what Christmas really looks like in his household (spoiler: it involves a lot of napping!). In this episode, Larry Lamb opens up about the magic of the Gavin and Stacey Christmas specials and playing the iconic Mick Shipman. He also gets incredibly raw about his parents' separation, his mother running away with his brother, and how being "badly fathered" shaped the man he is today. Learn more about your ad choices.
