Alan Cumming pt 1: "I'm going to do what I want to do, I'm going to live my life."

In the first part of this two-parter of 'The Lulu Podcast: Turning Points' Lulu chats to Emmy, Tony, BAFTA and Olivier award winner Marvel and Traitors star, Alan Cumming. That's a lot of awards. Alan talks to Lulu about the big turning points in his life - creating two characters in drama school that have stuck with him for life; being cast in two massive productions Hamlet and Cabaret just as things in his personal life started to unravel; and two influential women in his life. He talks about reprising his role in the Marvel Cinematic Universe as Nightcrawler; how talking about his difficult childhood has helped others; and what he was scared of saying to Princess Anne when he met her.

Om Podcasten

The UK's greatest female rock n roll legend, Lulu, has been in the music industry for over 60 years. She's seen people come, she's seen people go. She's seen people make it, break it, fake it. She has seen them rise, and she has seen them fall.  And all the while she's had a curiosity - what is it that makes people tick? How have they got to where they are? Where does their motivation come from? Where do they get their resilience? When life throws curveballs, how have they overcome them? What are their turning points? In this brand-new project, Lulu sits down with guests to discuss the pivotal moments in their lives that have shaped them into the people they are today.
