Remembering Helen McCrory

Newscast

Available for over a year

After hearing the awful news that Helen McCrory has died from cancer at the age of 52, we wanted to share the interview we recorded with her this time last year. Helen and her husband, Damian Lewis, were on Newscast to tell us about their scheme to provide free meals to frontline NHS workers. They were such good sports when they came on the podcast. Their kindness, warmth, humour and generosity came is so clear to hear in this interview. They even played along with Adam's rubbish quiz! Everyone at Newscast is thinking about her, Damian her friends and family.
