We launched a video with a chat with musician and actor Gary John Lammin . Gary is extremely talented in both fields and gives an insight into his life within the Podcast. Gary was an original member of 77 punk band C**k Sparrer before forming The Little Roosters. In recent times he's enjoyed success with his band The Bermondsey Joyriders. You may have seen him as an actor in the following Riff-Raff (Ken Loach), Auf Wiedersehen Pet, Eastenders and The Bill.
