BBC Radio 4 - Chain Reaction, Series 8, Rebecca Front interviews Chris Addison

The comedy actress and her Thick of It co-star meet in the tag-team talk show.

The comedy actress and her Thick Of It co-star in the talk tag show where the guest is the next interviewer. From August 2012.

Rebecca Front talks to her co-star from The Thick of It - the comedian and actor Chris Addison, about working with Armando Iannucci and embracing his middle-classness through stand-up.  

They both dread nude scenes "I look like a child has done a collage with twiglets" says Chris.

This is the long running tag talk show series, where the guest turns interviewer the following week.

Recorded with an audience, the interviews focus on the life, career and the passions of the interviewee but often prove to be as revealing about the interviewer.

Producer Carl Cooper
