Nigel's guest today is Joe McElderry, one of the most recognisable faces in the world of showbusiness. Joe became famous when he won The X Factor in 2009 and his debut single The Climb topped the charts. Joe is a gay man and came out to the world shortly after his win. He was immediately thrust into the spotlight regarding his sexuality - a lot for someone of his age at the time to deal with. But Joe did deal with it and now finds himself as one of the most sought after stars in the theatre world and a celebrity with countless hit albums under his belt.This series is a celebration of a beautiful queer community; people of all ages, people who have had to tread their own path to live their real truth, who have fought with their emotions and emerged victorious, who inspire, who aspire and always entertain. Hosted by Nigel May. Every episode Nigel speaks to a person from the LGBTQIA+ rainbow to hear their story; one person, one life, one conversation. And it always guarantees A Gay Old Time!Follow the podcast on Instagram @agayoldtimepodcast and on TikTok @agayoldtime Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Cerramos con este tercer programa la serie que abrimos sobre las 100 mejores canciones para el cine, que publicó el American Film Institute de Los Ángeles en 2004, a partir de una encuesta entre los líderes americanos de entretenimiento. La mayoría son temas muy conocidos por lo que hemos procurado huir de las versiones originales que aparecieron en la película, de hecho en este bloque encontrareis la canción más antIgua de la lista. Es el clásico “Isn’t it romantic” de Rodgers & Hart del año 1932, pero en la versión que hizo Diana Krall. La más moderna es el rap “Loose yourself” de Eminem, con la que ganó el Oscar a la mejor canción en 2002 para la película “8 millas” y que en este caso sí es la original que hemos utilizado en este programa. Hemos tratado de encontrar un buen puñado de versiones de esas canciones que ya forman parte de la banda sonora de nuestras vidas.
