2020. Blimey. You know that means we're as far away from 2000 as 1980 is. Steve hadn't left primary school by then. Some say he never has.

Anyway, Happy New Year. And in this first episode of 2020 we have actor, writer, director, producer Joe Walsh. Joe talks about his theatre company, Two In A Bed and their forthcoming productions, the sold out Manchester Minutes and Fossils which will be on during the Greater Manchester Fringe Festival. He also talks about what it was like to play Joy Division's Ian Curtis in the play New Dawn Fades.

And then we get down to the hot topic of the moment. No, not Brexit. No, not Harry and Meghan. No, not Liverpool's relentless pursuit of the Premier League. No, the hot topic is at what age do you become an "older" actor and the pitfalls of setting up a casting page on Facebook.

Tickets for Fossils, which is on at the Salford Arts Theatre on July 19th can be found here....
