BUMPER CHRISTMAS SPECIAL: A Castle for Christmas

About this episode

Julia interviews Scottish actor Stephen Oswald about his experience filming the festive Netflix movie, A Castle for Christmas, during lockdown.

Julia is joined by Scottish giant (often mistaken for hot Santa) Stephen Oswald who tells her all about filming the excessively festive Netflix movie, A Castle for Christmas. It was lockdown, 2020, and an obsession with knitting was about to take a hold of the plucky thespian as he travelled back to his native Scotland for 3 months to film with a bunch of similarly confused actors and Brook Shields! This one is quite a (sleigh) ride. If you're looking for a podcast episode to put you in a Christmas mood, step right up. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
