    Mel Giedroyc - I Lost My Biggest Fan When Mum Died

    Mel Giedroyc is a comedian, writer and TV presenter who has been entertaining the nation for over 30 years. Hired in 1996 as a writer for French and Saunders (alongside best friend Sue Perkins), Mel’s career took off and she went on to co-present hit Channel 4 series Light Lunch and Late Lunch, and then the Great British Bake Off. Since then, Giedoryc has written a Sunday Times bestselling novel and fronts the podcast, Where There’s A Will There’s A Wake. Now she returns with a new book, The Comeback, a funny, big-hearted novel about second chances set in a community. In this hilarious and moving episode, we talk about how she feels she is always ‘getting away with it’, life post-Bake Off, having children, not making it to her mother’s deathbed due to a big night out, and the recurring nightmare that she has never been able to shake… IN THIS EPISODE: 00:00 Introduction 02:55 Getting Away With It 05:43 Bake Off 08:43 Life After Bake Off 09:45 The Comeback Novel 10:21 Theatre And Family Roots 17:18 Cambridge Degree Disaster 28:49 Mums Deathbed Regret 30:46 Strokes And Stolen Years 32:05 Boozy Night Missed Call 36:10 Work As Grief Shelter 39:36 Remembering Rosemary 43:50 VHS Shame Spiral 52:00 Goodbyes And Final Thoughts LINKS + MENTIONS: Listen to Mel’s podcast, Where There’s A Will There’s A Wake here: swap.fm/l/ZuaKfvomuCzS7P3cLJzx and watch here: https://www.youtube.com/@WhereTheresAWillTheresAWake The Comeback is available to pre-order now: www.hachette.co.uk/titles/mel-giedroyc/the-comeback/9781472256263/ Join the How To Fail community: www.howtofail.supportingcast.fm/#content Elizabeth’s Substack: www.theelizabethday.substack.com WANT MORE?

  10. Deadly Hot Takes

    Deadly Hot Takes

    Summer’s nearly done, Death‑lings — and things have been getting seriously hot both here in the UK and in the afterlife. Temperatures rising, tempers flaring, and Mel Giedroyc has found herself right at the centre of a blistering swirl of deadly hot takes. These are the moments that went bonkers viral, so we’ve gathered them up, cooled them just enough to be safe for human consumption, and packed them neatly into one combustible little bundle. Expect freshly‑singed contributions from Peter Serafinowicz, Maisie Adam, Vicki Pepperdine and Joel Dommett — all sparking off Mel in ways that probably violate several celestial fire‑safety regulations.

    The Frankenstein Cut

    Deathlings, Mel's been busy in the Underworld laboratory, stitching together a monster made from the finest body parts of previous episodes. Inside this delightfully unnatural creation: Stephen Mangan gets surprisingly invested in bowing etiquette, Vicki Pepperdine suffers a spectacular skydiving death with Channing Tatum, Bridget Christie recruits Radiohead for her funeral procession, Matthew Baynton prepares to be buried with his false teeth intact, and Larry Dean's Spin For Your Sins ends in eternal damnation while Mel enjoys a rather more heavenly outcome.

    Mel Giedroyc

    Mel Giedroyc is Gyles's special guest on this episode; and she talks about her amazing family story. Her father and his family were taken from Eastern Poland to Siberia by the Russians in 1939 - Mel's grandfather was shot, but her grandmother, dad and aunts made an extraordinary journey and eventually reached London, where Mel's father settled and met her mother. It's a fascinating, moving and sometimes shocking tale, and a very special edition of Rosebud. Mel also talks about meeting Sue Perkins at Cambridge, about being flashed at in Italy, and about her love of walking holidays. Mel Giedroyc is the host of the brilliant Where There's a Will There's a Wake podcast, in which guests plan their perfect funeral and talk about the manner in which they're going to meet their maker. It's a surprisingly uplifting podcast about death and is highly recommended. Enjoy this. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
