Sara Davies
Dragons' Den and Strictly star Sara Davies, performer Jonny Cotsen, sibling podcaster Catherine Carr, athlete and gardener Tayshan Hayden-Smith, Gary Wilmot's Inheritance Tracks.
Sara Davies MBE joins Richard Coles and Nikki Bedi. The Dragons' Den investor started her multi-million pound business as a student and topped the leaderboard during her time on Strictly Come Dancing. Sara talks about her path to success and passion for crafting.
Five years ago Jonny Cotsen decided to explore his deaf identity, after a life of adapting to be part of the hearing world. A聽qualified graphic designer and teacher, Jonny also聽changed careers to pursue his childhood ambition of performing.
Catherine Carr and her siblings were separated as children. Now, with relationships repaired and large bodies of water having passed under the bridge, Catherine is still fascinated by sibling relationships of all shapes and sizes.
Gary Wilmot shares his Inheritance Tracks: Mack the Knife by Bobby Darin and Summer Breeze performed by The Isley Brothers.
Tayshan Hayden-Smith was nicknamed 'the English Neymar' as a talented teenage footballer. But becoming a dad at 17, losing his mum in his early 20s and the 2017 Grenfell Tower fire have all played a part in him taking a completely different path. Now, at the age of 24, he is a garden designer and soon to exhibit at the Chelsea Flower Show.
We Can All Make It by Sara Davies is out now.
Jonny Cotsen's film Born Deaf Raised Hearing is on 大象传媒 One on May 6th at 7.30pm (8pm in Wales), and then available via the 大象传媒 iPlayer.
Catherine Carr's Relatively Podcast is available now.
Gary Wilmot is in Wicked which is booking until 27 November 2022 at the Victoria Apollo Theatre in London.
