Something from the Cellar: Tom Allen

Author: Kate Thornton June 10, 2025 Duration: 1:02:15

Today, in honour of Pride Month, we’re revisiting our wonderfully warm and witty conversation with the brilliant Tom Allen – comedian, presenter, and unapologetic national treasure!


In this episode, Tom reflects on growing up in Bromley as a fabulously strange teenager who had a love of dinner parties, fine silverware, and a flair for the theatrical. He shares how it felt to never quite fit in, what it means to embrace who you are, and how he’s finally grown into the life he always felt he was meant for.


It's a charming, funny, and quietly powerful listen – enjoy!

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.
