And shares her own secret recipe with Angela.

Sophie Willan is a three-time BAFTA winning comedian, actor, writer and author, and a very good friend of Dish. We first hosted Sophie for our debut live - and unrecorded - show in London. So, we just had to have her back and set everything to record this time round.

Sophie is best known for her hit show, Alma’s Not Normal, which has seen her win BAFTA after BAFTA. She’s also appeared in Ludwig and Small Prophets, and went down in Taskmaster folklore for her star turn on the show. She is on Dish to talk about her new job, hosting The Great British Sewing Bee alongside judges Patrick Grant and Esme Young, with the new series on the way very soon.

Sophie’s partner, Carniel Francis-Levy, is a chef, and the couplehad their first child, Elijah, last year. Over a glass of Waitrose Blueprint Prosecco, we chat about life as a new mum and hear about the benefits and challenges of living with a great cook.

Angela serves a comforting dish of perfectly cooked golden chicken, tomatoes & green beans, paired with a glass of Calvet Sancerre Rosé. But that’s not the end of the cooking, as Sophie demonstrates her favourite, and somewhat challenging, food combination for Angela’s verdict.

Welcome back Sophie. Do come again!
