    Another lovely episode this week with writer, actor (and former Nuala - if this means nothing to you, look it up) TARA FLYNN! Tara is an all round brilliant egg, and I love her very much. Also, the latest live episode of HER new podcast, 'Now You're Asking' (which she presents alongside Marian Keyes) has just dropped, and it's fab. So when you're done here you can pop across and listen to that. But please come back in a fortnight. I need you. I'd miss you. Thanks so much for listening, and if you like the show please like, subscribe and tell your friends (even the ones you're in a parasocial relationship with. Might not come to anything, but worth a go, eh?). Want to suggest someone for a future episode? Got a Crush story you'd like to share with me to make my own pale in comparison? We love to hear from you!

    Brilliant comedian and writer Holly Walsh (you'll have seen her on QI, or heard her on Just a Minute, or watched Motherland, which she co-writes) joins me to talk about crushes and unrequited love. As you know, I love talking about crushes. Can't stop me. But what I love about this conversation is how hard Holly finds it to talk about, even years on. I think we can all relate to that. Also, good coverage of Gladiators in this episode, for all you sports fans. If you're not on Substack already, maybe come on over and join us? It's a great way to support the show if you love the show, and also a great place to read funny writing from good people (John Finnemore, Sali Hughes and Richard Herring are all there, give it a try!) That's the hard sell done. Does that count as a hard sell? It's been a long week. See you next time! MCS x Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

    I am OBSESSED with Rivals, which is just the perfect mix of camp nostalgia and (occasionally inappropriate) 80s style romance. David Tennant as a ludicrous villain? Sure, why not. And Danny Dyer in a moustache? Win. Win. Win. So, I'm delighted that Katherine Parkinson is my guest today, as she's playing one of my favourite characters in the show. She's so funny, and relatable, and bonkers - and of course so is Katherine. We talk about all sorts in this episode - from the fan letter, of which we are both fans; to navigating on-screen and off-screen romance. Classic Crushed. You're going to love it. Thanks to everyone who came to the live recordings - they are so much fun to do. We'll try to do some more next year. lots of love MCS x Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Fabulous, original and hilarious memories

I love this. I love MC-S and this is a wonderful series of hilarious conversations with brilliant women, sharing memories of crushes past and sometimes not so past. A magnificent , original, often revelatory insight into stuff we’ve all said and done and the crazy, often hopeless crushes we’ve all had. Superb.
