Over deze aflevering

<p>Tom Davis is one of the funniest people I know. We first met ten years ago on Murder in Successville, the hilarious BBC3 sitcom he co-created with his friend James De Frond.&nbsp;</p><br><p>At the time, I had no idea what I was getting myself into. What I didn’t realise then was just how much the show meant to Tom. Murder in Successville wasn’t just another job for him. It was a pivotal moment and there was so much riding on it.&nbsp;</p><br><p>This conversation is a rollercoaster. I haven’t laughed that much in a long time - but it also reveals a side to Tom that goes far beyond the laughs. </p><br><p>In this episode, Tom shares:</p><ul><li>Why he took a risk on me for the very first episode of Murder in Successville</li><li>How he desperately wanted to be a dad and feared it might not happen</li><li>Why he decided to go sober and what it’s taught him&nbsp;</li><li>What Timothée Chalamet text him after the Critics Choice Awards</li><li>What happened when Tom was mistaken for Ed Sheeran’s bodyguard&nbsp;</li></ul><p><br></p><p>This conversation is a reminder that it’s not always a simple road to success - true success is a journey.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Tom Davis is Great Company.</p><br><p>Get tickets for Tom's 2026 tour, Spudgun <a href="www.bigtomdavis.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">HERE!</a></p><br><p>If you enjoyed the show, you can also follow us:&nbsp;</p><p>Instagram- <a href="https://www.instagram.com/greatcompanypodcast/#" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@greatcompanypodcast</a></p><p>TikTok - <a href="https://open.acast.com/networks/611e511b4ec6dc00134bced2/shows/65d737dfdc02e00016c413b2/episodes/www.tiktok.com/@greatcompanypodcast" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@greatcompanypodcast&nbsp;</a></p><p>Jamie - <a href="https://www.instagram.com/jamielaing/?hl=en-gb" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@jamielaing </a></p><br><p>And if you've got thoughts, questions and comments, you can email us at: <a href="mailto:greatcompany@jampotproductions.co.uk" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">greatcompany@jampotproductions.co.uk</a>&nbsp;</p><br><p>THE CREDITS&nbsp;</p><p>Executive Producer: Ewan Newbigging-Lister</p><p>Producer: Helen Burke &amp; Jack Claramunt</p><p>Assistant Producer: Issy Weeks-Hankins</p><p>Video: Jake Ji &amp; Josh Bennett</p><p>Social Media: Laura Coughlan</p><p>Audio: Rafi Amsili Geovannetti</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Great Company is an original podcast from JamPot&nbsp;</p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
