For the first ever episode of the Ad Libbing Podcast, Natalie and Ali are joined by their pub quiz team mate, actor Himesh Patel, star of Yesterday the Movie. We chat about his first time on stage, playing Michael Aspel in his school's Christmas play, 'This is your life Santa Claus', how he rushed to his EastEnders audition straight from his final GCSE exam and all of his Hollywood dreams coming true!

Check out Himesh's IMDB page for his credits. He has starred in many brilliant films and TV shows and I'm sure you will enjoy watching his work.
