    CHRISTMAS SPECIAL: Keira Knightley, fennel & citrus roast turkey, and Champagne

    It’s beginning to taste a lot like Christmas.  For this year’s festive special, Nick and Angela are joined around the tree by Keira Knightley for a turkey feast and plenty of bubbles.  Keira Knightley is an English actress who lives in North London with her two daughters and husband, James Righton. She is known for an array of brilliant roles in films such as Pride & Prejudice, The Imitation Game, Atonement and the TV series Black Doves. And, at this time of year, it would be remiss not to mention her role in the Christmas staple Love Actually, a film she’s watched just once. She joins us following her latest lead role... opposite Joe Wilkinson in the Waitrose Christmas advert. We’ve heard his side of the story, but how does Keira reflect on the day they filmed ‘the big kiss’?  Angela delivers dish after dish in this episode, with a fennel & citrus roast turkey as the table’s centrepiece. It’s served with her own (and famous) turkey gravy, roast potatoes with rosemary salt, stir fried sprouts with chestnuts and pancetta and a roast parsnip & grape salad with hazelnuts, chicory and parmesan dressing, which might just steal the show. Glasses are filled with No.1 Brut Special Reserve Vintage Champagne on arrival and the meal is paired by the Waitrose wine experts with a glass of De Loach OFS California Chardonnay. Enjoy! And let us know if you try and recreate any of the dishes at home.  Merry Christmas and happy holidays from Nick, Angela and all the Dish team!  You can watch full episodes of Dish on YouTube and, new for this season, on Spotify.  All recipes from this podcast can be found at waitrose.com/dishrecipes The recipe for roast parsnip & grape salad was created for Waitrose by Elly Curshen.

  3. Keira Knightley and Sarah Lancashire, Raye, Stalking

    Keira Knightley and Sarah Lancashire, Raye, Stalking

    Powerhouse actors Keira Knightley and Sarah Lancashire are starring alongside Ben Wishaw in new Netflix spy drama Black Doves. It follows the story of a female spy seeking revenge for the murder of her lover – whilst outwardly being married to a high-ranking politician. Keira and Sarah speak to Nuala McGovern about the drama, their careers and their experiences as women in the film industry. Victims of stalking could be given more protection from their abusers under new government proposals. The Home Office has today revealed six new measures to tackle the problem of stalking which is so prolific - official figures show that one in five women aged 16 and over in England and Wales have been a victim of stalking at least once. The new rules would include the right for victims to know the identity of online stalkers much sooner, and a wider use of stalking protection orders, as well as a review of current stalking legislation. Emma Lingley-Clark interim CEO at the Suzy Lamplugh Trust responds to the announcement. 73-year-old Jane Rubens from Edinburgh was enjoying a holiday in the US when the worst thing happened. Whilst crossing a walkway in St Louis, Missouri she was hit by an SUV. She suffered a serious brain injury, broken ribs and a fractured collarbone. After multiple brain surgeries, she is now in an induced coma in a US hospital. Against medical advice, the insurance provider AXA Partners gave her family an ultimatum, fly her home to Scotland immediately, or they'll remove funding for her hospital care. Her daughter, Cat Rubens, tells Nuala how she used social media to fight the company’s decision. Raye has been named as one of the people on this year's BBC 100 Women list, which celebrates 100 inspiring and influential women from around the world every year. This year she won six Brit awards including songwriter of the year - the first time a woman has been given that particular accolade. We hear her speaking to BBC 100 Women’s Kirsty Grant about her huge success and the pressure she feels female artists are under. Presenter: Nuala McGovern Producer: Kirsty Starkey
