#50 - Hugh Dennis - Don’t Let What You Do Define You

  • Summary

  • Today I’m talking to award-winning actor, comedian, and writer, Hugh Dennis. Best known for BBC1’s critically acclaimed sitcom OUTNUMBERED, he has also played an emotionally tortured Bank Manager in the BAFTA-winning show FLEABAG, Toby in the sitcom, NOT GOING OUT, and was an ever-present panellist on BBC 2’s long-running weekly satirical show MOCK THE WEEK.

    Hugh has also been a regular for over 25 years on BBC Radio 4, both writing and presenting their Friday night comedy THE NOW SHOW.

    In our conversation, Hugh (whose real name is Pete, by the way) shares… - Why he thinks allowing a bit of self doubt is a good thing. - How his job at Unilever helped keep him grounded - And what having a bishop for a father taught him about performance.

Some good take aways

I came across this podcast on a holiday research mission to find resources to help turn work pressure into a positive. I listened to the Hugh Dennis episode because I like him and thought the episode was really interesting. I particularly liked his point “don’t let your work define you”. I am now looking forward to going back to listen to the podcasts from the beginning. I will also listen to the SHED method book. I found the author/presenter genuine and authentic giving the guest a lot of time to talk.
