About this listen

Hosted by Mathew Horne and Joanna Page, each episode of Table for Four brings two hosts and a celebrity duo around the table for an honest, funny and revealing conversation. Whether they’re a married couple, an on-screen pairing, lifelong friends or creative collaborators, the format stays the same: four voices, one table, and no rush to leave. Across the series, Mathew and Joanna invite some of the most recognisable partnerships in entertainment to talk about how they really work together. From first meetings and shared successes to tensions, misunderstandings and moments that changed everything, the conversation goes far beyond the surface. Expect laughter, candour and the occasional curveball, as guests open up about what it takes to maintain a partnership in public, private and everything in between. There’s no formal interview, no press-junket polish, just relaxed conversation guided by curiosity and warmth. Food acts as the backdrop rather than the focus, creating a space where guests can settle in, let their guard down and talk freely about their lives, careers and relationships. At its heart, Table for Four is about connection: how partnerships are formed, how they survive change, and what happens when two people choose to keep showing up for each other. It’s a celebration of collaboration, companionship and the stories that only emerge when you sit down together and stay awhile.Immediate Art Cooking Food & Wine

    Apr 9 2026
    If you like easy conversation, good food and the odd welcome tangent, you'll feel right at home here. In this episode of Table for Four by Good Food, Joanna Page and Mathew Horne are joined by Connor Swindells and Alistair Petrie for a relaxed, funny and quietly revealing chat over cocktails and a generous spread. There's talk of how they first met on Sex Education, Paris Fashion Week detours, cooking (or not cooking), and the small, telling details that come with long friendships. From lost dogs to perfectly crisp roast potatoes. What unfolds is loose and unforced. Plenty of laughs, a bit of gentle ribbing, and moments where the conversation lands somewhere more thoughtful without making a fuss about it. It's the kind of episode you can dip into and stay for longer than you meant to.

  • Laura Smyth & Carmen Butcher
    Mar 26 2026
    If you like your podcasts funny, unfiltered and a bit like eavesdropping on two best friends, this one’s for you. On this episode of Table for Four by Good Food, Joanna Page and Mathew Horne are joined by comedians Laura Smyth and Carmen Butcher for a lively, free-flowing conversation over cocktails and a seriously good spread. What starts with overnight oats and airport pints quickly turns into stories of stand-up beginnings, disastrous gigs, dodgy stomachs and the kind of friendship that’s built on voice notes, laughter and saying “I love you” at the end of every ramble. There’s real heart here too, from Laura’s journey into comedy to the perspective that comes with it, all balanced with the sort of chat that never takes itself too seriously. It’s loose, honest and very funny. Settle in and join them at the table.
