The Sectioned Chef with Heston Blumenthal

Mine and Paul ventured to the south of France for this week’s episode with the one and only Heston Blumenthal OBE.  The experimental chef kindly invited the team to his home ‘En Provence’ to speak about his ADHD and much, much more. Heston vividly retells how he was sectioned in 2023, with a Doctor and the emergency services pinning him down and sedating him in his own home.  This episode discusses issues such as physical abuse, drug use and other topics that listeners might find upsetting.

Join ADHDer, Dr Mine Conkbayir MBE and husband, the BAFTA award-winning comedy actor, Paul Whitehouse (Mortimer & Whitehouse: Gone Fishing, The Fast Show) as they explore ADHD with diverse celebrity ADHDer guests, professors and specialists in this brand new Podcast series.

Dr. Mine provides theoretical and research insights, counter arguments and her own lived experience, creating a conversational and highly accessible space to explore this much misunderstood topic. Each episode they’ll chat to a guest who’ll share their experience of ADHD, whether from the point of view of being diagnosed themselves, as a parent or a specialist in the field. Fellow ADHDer guests include Rory Bremner, Denise Welch, Gemma Styles, Dr Alex George, Shaparak Khorshandi, Shaun Ryder and many more.
