The Way They Were

70: Cally Beaton: Helena Bonham Carter & Tim Burton

Today's episode sees Grainne and Chantal go ape at this week's showbiz couple's shenanigans, as the wonderful and hilarious comedian Cally Beaton presents the real life fantasy world of Tim Burton and Helena Bonham Carter!
We get to live our most privileged lives vicariously through the oddball director and eccentric actor and their seperate homes, as it would appear you can't take the girl out of Primrose Hill.
If you can fall in love when one of you is dressed as a primate, you would think you would be in it for the long hall, so what on earth went wrong?
And what happens when the romance in wonderland turns into the nightmare before Christmas?
As always Grainne and Chantal take us head first into this hot mess of a gothic tale. 

Grainne and Chantal are LIVE at the Museum of Comedy with a double bill of fantastic guests,as they record TWO episodes of The Way They Were on 25th October. Joining them to nominate two incredible celebrity car crash couples are comedians, Alexandra Haddow and Cariad Lloyd, tickets and info here

The podcast where every celebrity split is the one that got away. Each week comedians Grainne Maguire and Chantal Feduchin-Pate take a deep dive into a celebrity breakup, chosen by a special guest, that still lingers in their hearts and minds. We scour interviews, over-analyse iconic pictures and search for meaning in post-breakup media statements. Celeb gossip hounds will feel right at home, but really anyone who's experienced a breakup can appreciate hearing how the rich and famous take heartbreak to a whole new level. They might uncouple ‘amicably with love and respect for one another’ - but we never get over these lost loves! Join us every Friday for a new episode.
