Inspirational Women - Bonnie Langford - An Episode from the Cellar

Inspirational Women - Bonnie Langford - An Episode from the Cellar

Author: Kate Thornton March 10, 2026 Duration: 53:18

To celebrate International Women's Day we've dug deep in our archive to find some truly inspirational women.


Bonnie Langford has been treading the boards and entertaining us since before she was a teenager. Her career is as extraordinary as it is long and she has the anecdotes and stories worthy of someone who's been in as many legendary shows as she has.


In this chat we chart the ups and downs, the successes and the 'lessons' from 50 years in show-business.


We'll be back with a new episode on Thursday and for the first time a BONUS episode on Saturday. We'll tell you more about that on the next podcast.


Until then, cheers!


Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.


There’s a particular kind of conversation that happens after a glass or two of wine, where guards come down and real stories emerge. That’s the atmosphere White Wine Question Time captures so perfectly. Hosted by Kate Thornton, each episode gathers well-known friends for a relaxed yet revealing chat, structured around three thoughtful questions and, of course, a shared bottle. What unfolds is less a formal interview and more a glimpse into the genuine friendships behind the public personas. You’ll hear laughter, unexpected confessions, and perspectives on culture, society, and current events that rarely make the headlines. This podcast thrives in the space between entertainment and intimate disclosure, often veering into comedy as these candid discussions unfold. With a vast back catalogue of over 450 episodes, each one feels like pulling up a chair to a fascinating table. Whether you start with the latest release or browse the extensive archive, you’re guaranteed a listen that’s as engaging and relevant as it is genuinely enjoyable.
