Dish S:E Creative Studio

Kaya Scodelario has grown up in the spotlight. The British-Brazilian actress shot to fame as Effy on E4’s comedy-drama Skins. The show has remained popular with audiences since the early noughties, tackling issues such as teen addiction and mental illness. That success propelled Kaya to the big screen, where she won roles in two massive movie franchises, Maze Runner and Pirates of the Caribbean. Kaya’s latest role is in Guy Ritchie’s hit series The Gentlemen on Netflix, playing Susie Glass alongside an all-star cast of Theo James, Vinnie Jones and Ray Winstone.



Nick welcomes Kaya with a Whiskey Sour inspired by her latest role, while Angela makes her carb-loving dreams come true with a pesto & three-cheese hedgehog garlic bread to start and fresh tagliatelle with buttery cavolo nero, anchovies and pangrattato for the main course.



Kaya speaks frankly about the film industry and how she chooses roles. She and Nick reminisce about the Skins’ days and she shares how her Brazilian roots have shaped her cooking and, more importantly, her eating!

Nick and Angela kick off season 5 with the inimitable Claudia Winkleman



Claudia Winkleman studied Art History at Cambridge but soon decided a career in Art was simply too quiet for her. She left the gallery and wandered into television, appearing on shows like Holiday on the BBC, This Morning on ITV and Liquid News on BBC three in the nineties. Her big break came in 2004, when she began presenting Strictly Come Dancing: It Takes Two. Ten years later she stepped on to the dancefloor proper to host Strictly Come Dancing with Tess Daly. In 2020, Claudia scored a Sunday Times bestseller with her collection of hilarious essays, Quite: love, life & eyeliner. For the last two years, Claudia has been thrilling audiences (often with her wardrobe) on the UK’s favourite reality TV show, The Traitors.



Angela prepares a tasty roast topside of beef with Yorkshire puddings, crispy roast potatoes and a side of savoy cabbage, providing some delicious inspiration for Mother’s Day. The experts at Waitrose pair the meal with a bottle of Réserve du Mistral Famille Perrin, while Claudia lovingly opts for a glass of Ribena.

This is a riotously fun episode to welcome you back to the Dish table. Claudia talks Traitors, takes us behind the scenes at Strictly and shares what her husband, Kris, must simply never do.
