    This is a very special conversation, recorded in Lockdown, between Gyles and two great stars, who were also great friends: Dame Maggie Smith and Kathleen Turner.

This is one of Maggie Smith's last interviews, and was produced and recorded by Fane Productions. We're delighted to be able to share this with you now - enjoy this. Learn more about your ad choices.

He talks about the terrible food at his prep school and the much more delicious things on offer in the tuck shop at Eton, where he went next. He tells Gyles about his new book - Cooking and the Crown - and explains how his family have managed to stay normal, despite their fame... and he tells Gyles what a brilliant grandfather King Charles is.

    Rochelle Humes: popstar, business woman, TV personality, wife and mother. Gyles and Rochelle know each other from This Morning, but in this chat Gyles finds out much more about the person behind the success story. Rochelle tells him about her childhood, growing up in a single parent family in Essex. She tells him about her early experiences on stage in the West End, and how she auditioned for S Club Juniors and became famous as a tweenager. She talks about her time in The Saturdays and tells Gyles how she met and married Marvin Humes, who was at that time in the boyband JLS. And she talks about her success since The Saturdays and setting up her own business. In amongst all this, she and Gyles share their love of manifesting and realise they have more in common than they thought. Many thanks to Rochelle for her time and positive Rosebud energy - enjoy this! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

I would well recommend this podcast

This is a little gem. Gyles is an excellent interviewer- intelligent and sensitive. He listens to the interviewee and draws out of them things they had long forgotten or in some cases things from their lives that they had never connected together. It’s like listening in on confession or a therapy session. I think he could make the most mundane and boring person sound interesting. I’d well recommend this, I love listening to it.
