Nigel Havers on a lifetime of storytelling, famous friendships, and his most outrageous moments

by White Wine Question Time

Joining us today is a true gentleman of British entertainment, a beloved actor whose career spans five decades across stage and screen. From his BAFTA-nominated role in Chariots of Fire to TV hits like The Charmer, Downton Abbey, and Coronation Street, he’s long been the epitome of charm and wit — it’s the brilliant Nigel Havers!

In this episode, Nigel reflects on a lifetime in the spotlight, sharing how his love for acting led him to swap Eton for drama school and the lessons he learned from working alongside some of the greats. He also opens up about his early days navigating the industry, his unexpected stint as a radio researcher for Jimmy Young — where he landed Margaret Thatcher’s first radio interview — and why, after a lifetime of stories, he’s finally ready to tell them all on his brand new tour: Talking B*ll*cks.

You can catch Talking B*ll*cks live across the UK until the end of May, tickets available here!
