Gillian Anderson's breakthrough television role in the sci-fi series The X Files made her a global star in 1993, and she played cool-headed Agent Dana Scully for nearly a decade. She also starred in period dramas, including an acclaimed film adaptation of Edith Wharton's novel The House Of Mirth and, on television, in Bleak House, Great Expectations and War and Peace. Her theatre credits include A Doll's House, A Streetcar Named Desire and All About Eve, all of which saw her nominated for Olivier Awards. Gillian Anderson has won Golden Globe and Emmy Awards for the X Files, and also for The Crown in which she played Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher. More recently, she found a new generation of fans for role as a sex therapist in the series Sex Education. Her latest film is The Salt Path, adapted from the bestselling memoir by Raynor Wynn.Gillian Anderson tells John Wilson how, after being born in Chicago, she moved with her parents to Crouch End, London, when she was five, and then to Michigan at the age of 11. After what she describes as ‘rebellious' teenage years, she studied at Chicago's DePaul University with drama teacher Ric Murphy, whom she cites as a major influence on her early acting ambitions. After a series of minor stage roles in New York, she auditioned for The X Files and the role of Agent Scully changed her life. She also chooses the actor Meryl Streep as a major inspiration after seeing her with Robert Redford in the 1985 romantic drama film Out Of Africa. Gillian also reveals how the work of the Serbian-born conceptual performance artist Marina Abramović has also been an influential cultural figure for her.Producer: Edwina Pitman

We're long-time admirers of Denny Tedesco's “Wrecking Crew” doc which celebrated the studio musicians of 60s Hollywood, the unseen hands who can be heard on all those Beach Boys and Spector hits. Now he's done something similar with the musicians who were so much part of the success of James Taylor, Carole King and Warren Zevon in the next decade in “The Immediate Family”. We're delighted to have been able to organise a screening of the film at The Art House in Crouch End after which he spoke to David Hepworth about what it was like to grow up married to the music business, how the culture of session players changed over the years, what has kept the likes of Leland Sklar, Danny Kortchmar, Waddy Wachtel and Russ Kunkel at the top of their game for fifty years and whether anybody else is still keeping their craft alive.

In this episode, I talk to the fantastic comedian, HUW THOMAS. I have spent many a happy comedy night from 1992 to 1997, watching legendary resident compere Thomas at the Downstairs at The Kings Head Comedy Club in Crouch End, London.  The club was co-founded in 1981 by Peter Grahame and Thomas, who was forced to retire in 2002, after twenty years, due to health problems.   During his glorious time at the club, he would perform his off-the-wall comedy routines (including infamous animal impressions) to delighted audiences. Thank you so much for listening to my podcast, if you like what you hear, please subscribe and I hope you enjoy the interview.

There was drama everywhere on the final day of the 2024 season. Shepherd's Bush impressively beat Crouch End, but Ealing swept past North Midd to claim the title. In Div 1 Harrow Town and Southgate conjured up a thrilling finish that ultimately saw the former promoted and the latter relegated. Osterley secured second place in Div 2 , Brentham (somehow) overhauled Chiswick to snatch the second promotion slot in Div 3. Elsewhere United Sports will be going up from Division 6.....but that didn't stop the Stallions going well and truly run-crazy against them in Week 18.

One of Crouch End, Ealing or Shepherd's Bush will win the 2024 MCCL Premier Division. Sal and Dan work through the various connotations, and that includes a three way tie at the top. Could be a real knickergripping end to the season. Elsewhere, Harrow Town now in the box seat to join Hampstead in the Prem in 2025, Barnes still fighting for their lives at the bottom. Plus, all the ins and outs from elsewhere whilst Dan also comes off his long run about ticket prices at Lord's..... Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Sometimes it's just too hot to record the podcast indoors. On the hottest day of the year, Paul and Eli take the episode outside to craft some sun-baked economy comedy content. However, this is not a “walkabout” episode, not at all! This is a “sitabout” episode. They venture to a quiet meadow near Crouch End called Shepherd's Cot where they can record the podcast in relative privacy… Apart from all the random nosy dogs and weird men coming out of bushes! This week, Eli has brought along four unusual sodas to sample. Except one isn't a soft drink. In fact, they're not sure WHAT it is. Obviously, Eli loves it. Even in the scorching sun, Paul has time to play a game of The Price of Shite and Eli is looking for a victory for a change. Good luck to him! The sun's out, so the fun's out!

Rarely has the MCCL been as topsy-turvy as it is in 2024. North Midd stay top despite being trounced by Richmond, Crouch End chase 319 at Ealing. Elsewhere, London Tigers lose in Div 3 but still remain 26 points clear, whilst the top three (!) in Div 6 are all - already - north of 100 points.

A low-scoring week across the MCCL saw plenty of peculiar results. The top three in Div 4, for example, all lost....and barely managed to score 250 runs between them. In the Prem, North Midd return to the top after beating Crouch End, but Teddington suffer a shocker against Hornsey.

Cricket just wasn't meant to be played on rainy weekends. A fair few games in the MCCL in Week 6 never got started, some that did were ruined by showery weather. But, a surprising number of matches did see winners emerge. Crouch End were the big winners in the Prem, but it's North London Muslims (Div 5) who are now the only side with a perfect six from six winning record. Plus, the odd story of planes above stopping play at Barnes.....

Highgate also looked to their go-to men to keep moving forward. Elsewhere, Shay Boo and Crouch End still unbeaten in the Prem, Hampstead lose their 100 per cent record in Div 1. Willow Leather win an extraordinary contest lower down, whilst Twickenham find themselves flying the flag for the MCCL in the first European Cricket Network event to be held in the UK.

In 2004, Shaun of the Dead was released into cinemas and its particular mix of horror and comedy quickly made it a beloved cult classic… Turns out Paul was on set as a zombie extra during the production of this movie and he has a few stories to tell about it. It's a pity he will hardly get the chance to do so! To celebrate the film's 20th anniversary, CheapShow decides to explore North London to hunt for some of the real life locations from the ZomRomCom hit. They'll roam Finchley, Highgate, Crouch End and even take a long trip to South London for their final location in New Cross Gate. It's an epic journey that has Eli trying to inject his own misinformed opinions and hijack the walk with his memories… Which means Paul can barely be able to recall his own! They'll argue, digress and talk absolute garbage in yet another failed attempt to be taken seriously. Luckily, they manage to bump into comedian/actor Paul Putner who'll offer a few of his own SotD stories to balance out Paul and Eli's nonsense.

We head to the leafy suburbs of north London to visit Crouch End. The area might feel like somewhat of an underdog to the nearby bustling Finsbury Park but its abundance of quaint coffee shops and vibrant bistros, as well as its community feel, make it well worth a stopover. Local resident Rob Prendergast takes us on a tour of the neighbourhood's best culinary spots.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In the first of two special episodes celebrating the 40th anniversary of Downstairs at The Kings Head comedy club, I talk to the wonderful owner of the club, PETER GRAHAME about his comedy career. Downstairs at the Kings Head is one of the oldest comedy clubs in Britain.   Founded in 1981 by Grahame and Huw Thomas (who became the regular compere until his retirement), the intimate venue has never moved from the Kings Head pub, Crouch End in North London.  The 40th Anniversary gig which I attended took place in April 2023 (rescheduled after two years because of the pandemic).  With a bill featuring Al Murray, Phil Nichol, Nick Helm, Arthur Smith, Miles Jupp, Ria Lina, Laura Smyth, Shazia Mirza and back for one night only compere, Thomas, the anniversary night was filled with laughter and nostalgia. Walking into the club that evening, just as I had done for the first time thirty years ago, brought back many happy memories, including watching Harry Hill and Jeff Green both playing one of their earliest gigs there.  It was a pleasure chatting to the co-founder and promoter of this iconic comedy club.

PLEASE LIKE, RATE, REVIEW AND SUBSCRIBE TO THIS PODCAST ON WHEREVER YOU GET YOUR PODCASTS FROM Please note that we discuss the publication of Lauren's new book Death Lines at length, as well as its original publication date. That date has now been pushed back, but I urge you all to go here and pre-order a copy now! In this episode we venture into Stephen King's rare excursions outside the United States, and revisit the short story Crouch End. Originally part of the Nightmares and Dreamscapes collection, this homage to Lovecraft and hate letter to London is a fan favourite. Based on his experiences living in London and writing the Talisman with the late, great Peter Straub, this story still has the power to chill the blood.

This is another emotional, incredibly heart warming and, as always, funny as f**ck discussion. Both Gemma and Jess talk openly about their individual IVF journeys, the births, surgery, diagnosis and where they and their children are now.Both Mums talk frankly about the process of moving through the acceptance of their first children's early days to deciding to have more children. They share wonderful stories about their children's unique characters and how that plays out between siblings in daily life. Guest BiographiesGemma Sherlock lives in North London with her husband Rohan and two boys, Jasper, aged 7 and Spike, 3. Gemma followed her love of sculptural installations into a Degree in Art History and onto a career in Architecture. Her passion is manipulating existing buildings to create exciting interior spaces. These days, when not running around after the boys you can find Gemma in the Ladies Pond on Hampstead Heath or with a glass in hand nattering somewhere with friends. As a family they spend as much time as they can by the sea at their home in Cornwall.Gemma says ‘I feel so lucky to have found myself amongst an indomitable group of people parenting children with additional needs and disabilities. Together we laugh, cry and muddle-through. We hope our Podcast will let others know they are not alone'.Jess Honeyball is mum to 5 year old twins Freddie & Dylan, and 2 year old Leo. Jess lives in Crouch End, London with her husband Dan and kittens Margot & Jerry. Jess says ‘at least I have one female on my team, even if feline…''I adore storytelling, to my children and for a living. I work as a Producer and Director in non scripted television, and am kind of making it work juggling being a mum and working full time. My way of releasing tension (there's a lot!) is through bootcamp and barre. My parents were musicians, so playing and seeing my boys respond to music is one of my greatest joys! I look forward to the days that they can play instruments themselves. I feel extremely lucky to be so plugged in to Reach, the charity for children and families with upper limb difference. For Freddie, seeing and playing with other children who look like him, and continue to push and smash the boundaries of what's expected is magical and vital.'Content Warnings IVF Stories Miscarriage New-born Brain haemorrhage and surgery Drug resistant epilepsy Birth stories Lots of tears ResourcesSinead Burke's Book – Break the Mouldhttps://www.sinead-burke.com/break-the-mouldHydrocephaluswww.shinecharity.org.uk/hydrocephalus/hydrocephalusCerebral Palsywww.nhs.uk/conditions/cerebral-palsy/Epilepsywww.youngepilepsy.org.ukESES Syndromehttps://www.epilepsy.org.uk/info/syndromes/electrical-status-epilepticus-during-slow-wave-sleep-esessReach https://reach.org.uk/Poland syndrome https://pip-uk.org/ Hosted on Acast.

I first saw Legge perform as part of the sketch group Theatre Sports Downstairs at The Kings Head, Crouch End in 1992 and then as a regular warm-up comedian for recording of The Jack Docherty Show for Channel 5 at The Whitehall Theatre (now Trafalgar Studios) in London from 1995 to 1998.  I also saw one of his many wonderful solo shows, The Idiot at The Edinburgh Fringe in 2019.

After looking both ways, and only taking one small step off the pavement, Imogen Cauthery's life was changed forever.On that day, in 1996, a driver using a mobile phone lost control of the wheel for a split second and drove straight into Imogen, narrowly missing her mum and sister and instead of stopping, he drove away.Collapsed on the floor, a nearby doctor who had witnessed the incident ran over to give Imogen lifesaving CPR. She suffered a haemmorage, a two-week-coma and life-long difficulties.She is a life survivor and she has set a goal to make her dreams come true. Her daily life is a battle but she is founding solace close to animals.

Andrew Thornton takes sustainability seriously. So much so, that in a few short weeks, he changed the nature of virtually all the packaging in his North London grocery store. Bread is wrapped in paper. So is meat and fish. And if you want milk or laundry detergent, buy a (gorgeous!) refillable bottle and remember to bring it back. He has a great story, and we're thrilled to bring it to you. Thornton founded Thornton's Budgens in 2006 by buying a Budgens franchise in Crouch End, North London, and subsequently a second in Belsize Park. From Andrew: "I did this having become more and more frustrated by the short term profit focus of the clients I dealt with as a consultant and knowing deep inside me that there was a better and different way to be in business - a way that I later realised was having a heart! We are 'The Community Supermarket that really cares' and it is our intention to put people and planet first, trusting that profit will follow. Specifically it's our intention that: 1. Every team member at Thornton's Budgens has a fulfilling job 2. The families of Thornton's Budgens team are positively impacted 3. The customers of Thornton's Budgens have a joyful experience 4. The community of Belsize is positively impacted by what we do 5. The planet is positively impacted by what we do 6. We inspire others by what we do and who we are. I believe that if businesses put people and planet first, that profit will follow. And that a lot of what is wrong in the world today stems from the dysfunctionality of the current business model that is totally obsessed with profit, and in my opinion broken. Over the last 20 years, I have gradually made the journey from profit focused entrepreneur to heartful leader. I have applied this heartful approach to my business for the last 8 years, Thornton's Budgens and have now formed Heart in Business Limited with a number of others to share my experiences with other leaders. We are doing this from a practical 'we have done this' sense as opposed to from a theoretical basis. I am writing a book, 'How to put the Heart back into Business' which having stalled (due to life going on) needs to be re-energised!"

BONUS EPISODE: Trev Downey reads Stephen King's Crouch End

Sorry for the delay, I've been a bit sick but this episode is worth the wait... ADAM BLOOM! Adam (@adambloomie2) is a veteran of the UK comedy circuit & television for the last 25 years who's never stopped evolving his act, his joke writing is legendary and he's basically an encyclopaedia of comedy wisdom. I got him on because he grew up in the suburbs of London, moved to Soho, then to Green Park and finally to Zone 7 - before getting back in the mix in Crouch End. He's the first comedian I've met who won't leave London even though he's got 2 kids. He rocked up wearing a flat cap, smart watch and vaping - we get to that - and I ask him why Zone 7 didn't work for him.  Chatting gentrification he mentions A Tribe Called Quest - We The People. Also the Wikipedia page for Jewish populations around the world is here.

Urban Myths, the new Sky Arts drama series, re-imagines 'True-ish stories', starting with Bob Dylan's infamous visit to Euythmic's star Dave Stewart's Crouch End flat. Julia Raeside reviews the series which has achieved notoriety by casting white actor Joseph Fiennes to play Michael Jackson in an episode which has subsequently been dropped. Pulitzer Prize-winning author Michael Chabon discusses his latest novel Moonglow, in which a dying grandfather tells the secrets of his life to his grandson. His stories are in turn bawdy and moving, violent and very funny. The novel has just been nominated for the National Book Critics Circle awards in the US.Rimsky-Korsakov's opera, The Snow Maiden hasn't been staged in the UK for 60 years, but director John Fulljames is about to put that right. He's taking Opera North's new production of the Russian folk-tale inspired work on tour to Newcastle, Salford, Belfast, and Nottingham. Ahead of Donald Trump's inauguration tomorrow as the 45th President of the United States, film writer Adam Smith looks back at cinema's depiction of the Commander in Chief, from Peter Sellers in Dr Strangelove to Alan Rickman as Reagan and Daniel Day Lewis as Abraham Lincoln.
