S02 Ep18: Tom Watt

Released a week early on Patreon.

The storyteller.

This week broadcaster, actor and Arsenal fan, who is so used to telling other people&aposs stories, tells us his own. Those of a certain generation will naturally associate Tom with his role as Lofty Holloway on Eastenders, and he touches on those experiences as he discusses fame and pressure, but it is football storytelling that is so fascinating. From David Beckham&aposs autobiography, travels with his great friend Tony Adams, celebrity football matches and the spine-tingling Shosholoza in South Africa. Tom&aposs is a life of people asking him to do things and him saying "yes" and it&aposs been a life well-lived so far.
