Ep 1: Robert Webb – talking Peep Show in lockdown, his debut novel and zoom quizzes

It’s here! The first episode of the QuaranTea Break podcast: a new podcast giving you break from the world of self-isolation. This week, I spoke to the actor (Peep Show, Back, Fresh Meat) and author (How Not To Be A Boy) Robert Webb on video chat from his home study in North London. Robert was a brilliant first guest. We talk about what he’s been doing since the world went a little bit nuts, what he’s been watching (he has views on the Imagine and Hamilton videos), what he’s been reading and why he wouldn’t want to do a Zoom quiz every weekend. We also look at the possibility of Peep Show making a lockdown comeback and why he thinks we’ve been turning to the show for comfort. We also chat about his hilarious debut novel Come Again, which is published on April 23rd, but you can preorder now from independent bookshops, Waterstones and Amazon.
