Josh Smith's Great Chat Show

James Nelson-Joyce has gone from working part-time jobs in bars and restaurants to BAFTA nominations and now, apparently, 6/1 odds to be the next James Bond. He's sitting down with Josh for a chat packed with Scouse charm and moving stories.

James talks to Josh about the iconic moment he met Stephen Graham in Nando’s, and how Stephen has become a "big brother" to him ever since; the classism he faced through his time at drama school as a working-class Scouser; and how season two of The City Is Ours is about to take the drama up a notch.

And Josh puts James on the spot, and asks him: are you the new 007?

James also joins the group chat to answer your questions, including his most irrational fear (hint: it involves golf umbrellas), and where he'd take you on a big night out in Liverpool.

'This City is Ours' season two begins Sunday 25th October on BBC iPlayer and BBC One.

Tom Hopper is back on our screens in season two of The Terminal List, and he's joining Josh for a chat packed with Black Hawk helicopters, Navy SEAL friendships and some seriously good marriage advice.

Tom opens up about the body dysmorphia he quietly dealt with throughout his teens, modelling himself on 80s and 90s action stars, and how that insecurity still shows up for him today.

Josh and Tom dig into fatherhood and how becoming a dad to his son Freddie, who is autistic nonverbal, changed his outlook on life and communication. Plus he shares the piece of advice from his own dad that he credits with saving his marriage during one of its toughest periods, and why understanding his wife's love language was a total game changer.

Tom also joins the group chat to answer your questions, including the stunt that went painfully wrong on Black Sails, what it was really like being "burnt alive" in Game of Thrones, and whether dying on screen is as easy as it looks.

Chris Olsen has built an empire on TikTok with fourteen million followers, his own coffee brand and a bestselling memoir, and he's sitting down with Josh for a chat that goes way deeper than the algorithm usually allows.

Chris talks to Josh about his recent breakup, his close friendship with Meghan Trainor and some of the most formative conversations of his life that he had with his mum whilst she was discovering she was an alcoholic. He walks Josh through the intervention that changed everything on September 28th, 2017 and the biggest misconceptions people still have about addiction.

Josh and Chris also get into coming out at 13, the internalised homophobia that still exists within the queer community, and why Chris thinks the UK's new social media age restrictions are the right call.

Chris also joins the group chat to answer your questions, including about that viral Harry Styles "daddy" sign and the worst opening line to a TikTok video.

Fiona Shaw is an icon of stage and screen, after roles in Killing Eve, Bad Sisters, Harry Potter and now as she stars in Sense and Sensibility she joins Josh for a chat that proves she's still got the same mischief that once landed her on the front page of the Irish Times, much to her father's horror.

She and Josh dig into her scene-stealing turn as Mrs. Jennings in the new Sense and Sensibility, including how she found "the laugh" and why playing a bumbling school teacher in the 90s nearly derailed her film career before she happily returned to the theatre. Fiona also opens up about her friendships with Jodie Comer and Jodie Foster, working alongside the late Dame Maggie Smith, and that unforgettable Fleabag cameo with Phoebe Waller-Bridge.

Fiona also joins her first ever group chat to answer your questions, gives her verdict on that divisive Killing Eve finale (did Villanelle really die?!?) and shares the piece of advice from her father that she's very glad she ignored.

Sense and Sensibility is out in cinemas on 25th September.

From Downton Abbey to a leading lady of Mobland season two, Joanne Froggatt sits down with Josh for a proper catch-up five years in the making.

Joanne tells Josh how she feels about the rumours about Tom Hardy’s on-set behaviour that have been following the cast of Mobland around, and the chat she had with him that put her completely at ease when she needed it most.

Josh reminds Joanne of the chat they had five years ago about the double standards women face - and how the conversation has moved on (or hasn’t!) - from the industry's obsession with how women age, to the guilt and logistics that come with being a working mum.

Plus she shares a beautiful memory of working alongside the late Dame Maggie Smith, and opens up about her new HBO series on the trial of Louise Woodward which will get us all chatting!

Joanne also joins the group chat to answer your questions, including the wildest thing she's had to learn for a role, and whether she could take Pierce Brosnan, Helen Mirren or Tom Hardy in an argument…
