The Assembly

[IAmKerplunk]

Is anyone watching the new series? I am watching the Stephen Fry episode. Surely some of the guests have been told what questions to ask?

I haven't yet, didn't think it was available yet. Loved the previous ones though. Will definitely tune in.

I liked Stephen Fry’s description of bpd. I love this series.

Only one episode dropped.

Bump

Thanks @purpleme12 , couldn't find the thread!

Loved the episode with Sturgeon

Shes media trained to the hilt, but i loved seeing the singing at the end, that touched me 🥺

I know one of the people who are part of the group.
Its not scripted

I thought tonight's episode was the best one out of them all

I am so chuffed to hear that

What an absolutely brilliant episode!

Best tv ever.

When Nicola Sturgeon was asked if she had an affair with Alex Salmond 😂 I thought it was brave of her to talk about her miscarriage too. I thought she came across very well.

Nicola was very human and relatable.
The hair question was hilarious and she took it well.

Mrs Doubtfire - bloody hilarious! Ha ha
This is one of the best programmes on tv I think.

So agree.
Very few episodes when I haven't cried, but in a good way.

Next week is Sir Lenny Henry - haven’t seen him in anything in ages so will be interested to see what he is like

I’ve only watched the Stephen Fry episode I thought he was lovely with the audience and very open, I know he gets some hate on other boards but I like him on the whole

Did anyone see last nights with Lenny Henry? I didn’t think it was as good as other episodes. He didn’t seem to engage as well as other celebrities and kept making lots of facial expressions that I didn’t like

I saw most of it and agree that his engagement was a bit lacking in places. It didn't make me warm to him, I hope it was okay for the participants.

I missed the Nicola Sturgeon one, which was the one I wanted to see.

Lenny was my least favourite too which surprised me.

It's available on Itvx 😊

I found the Nicola Sturgeon one deeply moving. Her honesty around her feeling guilty over her miscarriage was heartbreaking.

I'm a big Tenant fan but thought he spoke as if he were talking to children. I didn't like that.

Nicola Sturgeons episode is on ITVX - it’s a brilliant episode, she came across really well. I cried at parts.

Thank you @IAmKerplunk and @VimtoDemon , I'll have a look.

We are trying to watch the Lenny Henry episode on catch up but its the Nicola Sturgeon one uploaded twice!

How weird! I’ve just looked on mine and it is showing the Nicola Sturgeon one as well as the LH one
