• Vicky McClure, roast topside of beef with peppercorn gravy & aligot, and a bloody Mary

  Angela’s first serving of aligot goes down very well with Nick and our brilliant guest. Vicky McClure is a BAFTA-winning actor known for her incredible roles in Line of Duty as Kate Fleming and This is England as Lol Jenkins. She joins Nick and Ange to talk about the third series of Trigger Point, the thriller in which Vicky plays Lana, a bomb disposal expert (known as an expo), struggling with trauma and PTSD. You can watch the show from 26 October on ITV and ITVX.  Vicky was born in Nottingham and lives there today with her husband Jonny, who is also an actor and filmmaker. The couple first met over a sausage cob, and it’s one of many areas of food and drink that Vicky feels strongly about, including tea and how to act with it correctly.  We begin the episode with Nick mixing up the first ever bloody Mary on the show ahead of a main course of roast topside of beef with peppercorn gravy & aligot. Aligot, a recipe made of potato and cheese, also makes its Dish debut... but definitely not its last, based on this reaction. It’s paired with a glass of Catena Malbec. Vicky brings pure joy to our table as well as her passion for her hometown and nighttime. We hear about working with Madonna and how she prepares for her demanding roles. And her second career path plan? Well, it’s right up our street.     You can watch full episodes of Dish on YouTube and, new for this season, on Spotify.  All recipes from this podcast can be found at waitrose.com/dishrecipes A transcript for this episode can be found at waitrose.com/dish If you want to get in touch with us about anything at all, contact [email protected]  Dish from Waitrose is made by Cold Glass Productions

• Mark Ronson, roast chicken with fennel, shallot & white bean stew and a dirty vodka martini

  Our award winning duo meet a DJ and producer who knows a thing or two about acceptance speeches. Mark Ronson is a BRIT, Golden Globe, Grammy and Oscar-winning British-American DJ, record producer, musician and songwriter. He has added ‘author’ to that list, too, with the release of his memoir, Night People, an account of becoming a DJ in ‘90s New York. The book is full of incredible stories and entertaining celebrity encounters, and you get a tasty sampler of them in our chat over roast chicken.  We start the episode with a dirty vodka martini and a side of Monster Munch before a hearty roast chicken with fennel, shallot & white bean stew, appealing to Mark’s love of Sunday roasts. This is paired with a glass of Vignerons Ardechois Viognier and served alongside tales of working with Paul McCartney and Lady Gaga and the joy Mark gets from being a dad.   Mark and Nick’s own friendship stretches back to the noughties, and nights out together with the likes of Adele and Amy Winehouse. Nostalgic memories are sparked across the table, including one involving a hungover Nick in New York and a party hosted by Leonardo DiCaprio.  There’s also time to celebrate Nick and Angela’s gong for Best Hosts at this year’s British Podcast Awards. We couldn’t be prouder of them. Cheers!

• Suranne Jones, seared tuna with braised tomatoes & chickpeas and a crumble

  We’re joined by a BAFTA winner for an easy-to-make, extra tasty dinner and a spoonful of dessert.  Suranne Jones’ acting credits are a must-watch list of shows including Doctor Foster, Vigil, Gentleman Jack and Coronation Street. Add to that list her new show, Frauds, a heist-driven thriller in which she stars alongside Jodie Whittaker.  On the menu for this episode is seared tuna with braised tomatoes & chickpeas, paired on this occasion with a Telmont Champagne Reserve Brut NV - a special accompaniment and a favourite of Suranne’s when she is drinking. This is followed by a perfectly seasonal autumn apple & blackberry crumble.  Suranne’s a bad influence in Frauds, but pure joy and excellent vibes around the Dish table, bringing a list of food likes and dislikes that matches, and maybe surpasses, the one brought by Benedict Cumberbatch. We get into the magic of Oldham, the power of Corrie and the appeal of Doctor Foster... and Suranne quickly comes clean that she’s a Dish superfan having listened to ALL episodes while on set for her new show. We salute you!

• Mawaan Rizwan, pork & mushroom tantanmen and a vermouth cocktail

  Nick and Angela welcome a performer whose surreal comedy has made him one of Britain’s most distinctive voices. Mawaan Rizwan’s career has been anything but ordinary, taking him from clown school to the Edinburgh Fringe. He created and stars in the surreal BBC comedy Juice, which earned him a BAFTA, and now he joins Nick and Angela to talk about the show’s new series. Mawaan likes a vermouth cocktail (when he’s feeling fancy), so Nick pours a Sharp Dresser to start.  Mawaan is also a big fan of ramen, so Angela serves a pork and mushroom tantanmen, topped with jammy eggs and spring onions. The dish is paired with a glass of The Dry Dam Riesling, whose acidity and creamy notes balance the richness of the broth. The conversation reflects Mawaan’s playful spirit, touching on his passion for Beef Wellington, the time he sculpted Paul Hollywood’s cheekbones in brandy snap, and even the unlikely showbiz “beef” he’s nursing with Ellie Goulding. He also lets Angela in on his burrata hack for levelling up instant noodles.

• Sir Grayson Perry, smashed cucumber and steak noodle salad and a beer

  Nick and Angela welcome a new member to the ‘I Cycled to Dish’ club, as Sir Grayson Perry pedals his way to the Dish table. Grayson is one of Britain’s most celebrated contemporary artists. A potter, writer, broadcaster and social commentator, he rose to fame in 2003 when he won the Turner Prize, becoming the first ceramicist to receive the honour. He joins Nick and Angela to talk about his new tour, Are You Good?, which asks whether any of us are truly behaving ourselves.  We keep it simple at the start, with an ice-cold Daura Damm gluten-free beer. Grayson loves fresh, crunchy salads, and Angela obliges by serving a smashed cucumber and steak noodle salad. The umami flavours are complemented with a glass of Albert Road Pinot Noir. Between bites, the chat covers Marmite confessions, banana rituals, nostalgia for greasy spoons and Nick’s delight at discovering someone who likes a pickled onion as much as he does. We even get to hear about the joys of overtaking men in Lycra while wearing a frock.  You can watch full episodes of Dish on YouTube and, new for this season, on Spotify.  All recipes from this podcast can be found at waitrose.com/dishrecipes A transcript for this episode can be found at waitrose.com/dish If you want to get in touch with us about anything at all, contact [email protected]  Dish from Waitrose is made by Cold Glass Productions
