We Started Here with Lacey Turner

Our take on We Started Here with Lacey Turner podcast

Lacey Turner, best known as Stacey Slater in EastEnders, is bringing fans something special with We Started Here. This podcast isn't just a fun throwback—it's all about the journeys of actors, writers, and directors who got their start in soaps and went on to do big things in TV and film. In the first episode, Lacey chats with EastEnders legend Jessie Wallace (aka Kat Slater) about their time on the show, the highs and lows, and what came next. But that's just the start. The guest list includes top writer Jimmy McGovern, Doctor Who's Mandip Gill, Hollyoaks and American Gods star Ricky Whittle, and the talented Rakhee Thakrar. Plus, fans will hear from Davood Ghadami (Kush Kazemi), Anita Dobson (the iconic Angie Watts), and Sarah Phelps, the writer behind some of the show's most unforgettable moments. If you love soaps or just enjoy hearing how stars built their careers, We Started Here is worth a listen. We Started Here with Lacey Turner is a tv & film podcast by Colour It In Studios Ltd / BBC Studios Drama Productions.
