Joe Lycett Interviews Katherine Ryan

Episode 2 of 6

Comedian and TV host Joe Lycett chats to Canadian stand-up star Katherine Ryan in the talk tag show. From February 2017.

After being interrogated by Sara Cox, this time Joe Lycett turns interviewer inviting his chosen guest Katherine Ryan into the Chain Reaction hot-seat.

Chain Reaction is the talk show with a twist where the interviewee becomes the interviewer in the next show.

John Cleese was first in the hot seat back in 1991 and since then, a procession of big names from the world of comedy and entertainment including Jennifer Saunders, Jarvis Cocker and Eddie Izzard have helped continue the chain.

Joe Lycett is a stand-up comedian who some know as "the parking fine man" from 8 out of 10 Cats Does Countdown while others celebrate him for any number of acclaimed live tours and festival shows that have delighted the British comedy viewing public in recent years.

Katherine Ryan, the Canadian stand-up star and presenter who is perhaps best known for her live stand-up work - 'Glam Role Model' and 'Kathbum' - as well as appearances on Episodes and Taskmaster, and Parental Guidance.

Katherine fields questions on subjects as varied as being compared to Joan Rivers and the secret of happiness, all via a mini-detour to address her hatred of bread.

Producer: Richard Morris
