- Society & Culture
Actor, author, presenter Ross Kemp joins me for a conversation we’ve wanted to have for a long time. Ross is renowned for playing the iconic character Grant Mitchell in the long-running British soap opera "EastEnders," but I wanted to discuss some of the extreme situations he has faced (i.e. reporting on gangs) over his years working on documentary projects, and what those experiences have meant to him. We also discuss his series “Ross Kemp Living With…,” in which he covers knife crime, online gambling, homelessness, and more. Ross is a warm, insightful soul, with thoughtful takes on societal issues.
