Brian Cox Great Scot!

I was delighted to snaffle Brian Cox for the 'Great Scot!' podcast series. He lives in the USA and we hooked up when he was in Scotland recently visiting family and friends. We had last met in May 2019 when we did an In Conversation event together onstage at Dundee Rep, in celebration of the theatre’s 80th Anniversary. It was a wonderful night, packed to the rafters, with the audience hanging on his every word.
As you’ll hear, Dundee Rep proved to be life-changing for Brian, whose childhood had been turned upside down after the untimely death of his beloved father. Like many of my Great Scots, Brian owes much to thoughtful, nurturing teachers, who, early on, spotted his talent and gently steered him towards the theatre. And you can take the boy out of Dundee … find out which local delicacy is one of his all-time favourite foods!
