Terry Molloy- "I Decided To Never Become Famous"

Before we even get a chance to give the machine a whirl we've behind the scenes secrets from Beadle's About! That's because our guest President this week is star of The Archers and Doctor Who, Terry Molloy!

Grab your flask and join us for a ramble as guest President Molloy leads us through three special destinations chosen entirely at random with the use of Tony’s enchanted bingo machine. As ever, the omniscient voice of Sir Stephen Fry is an eye on the proceedings!

First stop is destination number 786: Keyboard and Other Instruments. Terry played in a band, in The Cavern, in Liverpool, in the sixties. What more could you want?

Next we're heading toward 645: Household Furnishings. Terry has a beautiful home. How easy is it for him to summon up Davros, the quintessence of wickedness, when surrounded by such beauty?

This leads us on to the story of how Terry got started in the world of Acting and why, from an early age, he was determined never to be a star!

Our third and final destination is 358: Other Specialised Forces and Services. It all goes a bit Boys Own Adventure on the Rambling Club as we find ourselves with a very young Master Terry Molloy, facing a sandstorm in the middle of the desert!

After all that globetrotting it’s time to head back down the garden path to Tony’s shed and relax!

Tony Slattery’s Rambling Club is a free-associating conversation, involving very special guests. It drops every Friday on every podcasting outlet known to man. We’d love it if you came along for the walk. If nothing else, it’ll help you get your steps in!
