  • Katherine Parkinson is sweet on our mushroom risotto

    Katherine Parkinson is sweet on our mushroom risotto
    Nov 11 2026
    She has our unrivalled attention. Champagne, chocolate and a BAFTA-winning actress? Dish days don’t get any more luxurious as we welcome Katherine Parkinson to talk about the latest installment of Rivals. The smash-hit show has returned for the second half of its second season on Disney+, with Katherine resuming her incredible role as Lizzie Vereker. And, like you, we’re desperate to find out what happens with her on-screen love Freddie, played by former Dish guest Danny Dyer. No spoilers on this episode though as, over a glass of No.1 Brut Special Reserve Vintage Champagne, we get into Katherine's food likes and dislikes, which are heavily influenced by her sweet tooth. Pistachio cream, Lindt balls and tomato ketchup all get a mention, alongside her life-long love for cheese, which earned her room at university an outstanding nickname. Angela serves the best mushroom risotto, a recipe by Martha Collison, as a perfectly seasonal main, paired by the Waitrose wine experts with a bottle of Schug Carneros Pinot Noir. We hear about the joys of a boozy lunch, using your nose to get into a character and talking Spartans round at Jilly Cooper’s. Alongside her role in Rivals, you’ll know Katherine from her award-winning roles in Here We Go and The IT Crowd, and a long list of theatre productions including Uncle Vanya, The Seagull and Much Ado About Nothing. So, what does she prefer, the rush of performing live or the joy of the edit? Plus, we find the outer limits of Katherine’s knowledge of Italian. Bellissimo! The new Waitrose Christmas advert, The Perfect Gift 2, is out now and - spoiler alert - Nick and Angela get a sneak peek in this episode. Enjoy a second serving of Keira Knightley and Phil (played by Joe Wilkinson) on waitrose.com. You can watch full episodes of Dish on YouTube and on Spotify.

  • Riz Ahmed is transported by our braised chicken with pickled cucumbers

    Riz Ahmed is transported by our braised chicken with pickled cucumbers
    Nov 4 2026
    A fusion of flavours for a man of many roles. Award-winning actor and rapper Riz Ahmed joins us this week, known for his roles in TV shows like the Emmy-winning The Night Of, alongside performances in hit films such as Four Lions, Nightcrawler and Sound of Metal. He also co-wrote and starred in the Oscar-winning The Long Goodbye. From acting in Hollywood blockbusters to screenwriting, Riz can do it all, even sleep without a pillow… but more on that later. Away from the screen, Riz is an inquisitive food lover with a passion for layered flavours and unexpected combinations. It’s a tailor-made opportunity for Angela to cook braised chicken with pickled cucumbers, inspired by the Filipino classic adobo. Paired with a bottle of Familie Mantler Gemischter Satz, selected by the Waitrose wine experts, it makes the perfect backdrop for chats about a childhood surrounded by his mum’s cooking, his firm stance on beansprouts, and his latest role as sous chef to his wife. In our time with Riz, we learn that his love of acting started young, with a childhood spent dreaming up films and acting them out in the kitchen. These days the sets are slightly bigger, and certainly more people helping bring the story to life. He tells Nick and Angela about his new film, Digger, a bold black comedy from Alejandro González Iñárritu about the end of the world. Riz shares what it’s like working alongside co-star Tom Cruise, whose curiosity about everyone around him is as surreal as it is infectious; and, surprisingly, why a day on set with Tom comes with a great deal of clapping. Luckily for Riz, we’re no strangers to a round of applause at Dish. You can watch full episodes of Dish on YouTube and on Spotify.

  • Russell T Davies enjoys a taste of home with our smoky seafood paella

    Russell T Davies enjoys a taste of home with our smoky seafood paella
    Oct 28 2026
    A new culinary adventure for Angela, with no regeneration required. Screenwriter, producer and television creator Russell T Davies joins us following the release of his latest work, The Queerest of Folk: A Life in Television, a memoir that looks back on a career spent creating some of British television’s most recognisable shows. Russell’s love of food traces back to his childhood in Swansea, where his mum’s cooking and the local ice cream shop left a lasting impression. From hearty home-cooked favourites like osso buco and Sunday roasts to a good paella, there’s plenty of inspiration to draw on. Angela's answer? A smoky seafood paella with prawns & clams, a first time appearance for the Spanish classic on the show. It’s paired with a bottle of Waitrose Blueprint Verdejo, selected by the Waitrose wine experts. And because Russell is never one to turn down an ice cream, we finish with a few scoops of No.1 Vanilla & British Blackcurrant Ripple Ice Cream. While Russell might not have inherited his mum’s love of cooking, he certainly has some strong opinions on the perfect cup of tea, sharing his very particular recipe and preferred mug with us. Over a brew, we revisit some of the stories from his new memoir, including how his childhood love of Doctor Who took him from devoted fan to show runner and eventually writer on the show, to the legacy of Queer as Folk and It’s a Sin, two series that helped bring LGBTQ+ stories to the forefront of British television. It’s no surprise that Russell’s work has earned him many fans along the way, even Kate Bush. While we can’t quite arrange a visit from her today, we may have the next best thing: a potential new Doctor Who in the studio… You can watch full episodes of Dish on YouTube and on Spotify.
