12.1 Mel Giedroyc, Comic

<p>Do you want it too much? Viv Groskop talks to TV presenter, actress and writer Mel Giedroyc about the power of not caring and how she was nearly too rock 'n roll to audition for what turned out to be her big break. They talk #strictlycomedancing, #GBBO and almost going bankrupt. And making mistakes. Like thinking: who the HECK is interested in whether a cake rises?</p> <div>Mel's new book is <a href= "https://uk.bookshop.org/books/the-best-things-the-warm-funny-life-affirming-novel-from-comedian-mel-giedroyc/9781472256218"> The Best Things</a>.</div> <div> <p>Viv's book, <a href= "https://uk.bookshop.org/books/lift-as-you-climb-women-and-the-art-of-ambition/9781787633049">Lift As You Climb</a> is out now.</p> <p><a href= "https://www.instagram.com/vivgroskop/?hl=en">@vivgroskop</a></p> </div> <p> </p>
