John said:
In Conversation With... is simply a joy to do and I am really pleased that W have taken it to a fourth series. The diversity of the guests and the stories they have to tell continue to surprise me and even those people I already class as friends have told me things I didnt know about them. The truth is, you dont know anyone until they sit in front of you for an hour and tell you their story.
Previous conversations have included: James Corden, Lindsay Lohan, Jeremy Corbyn, Anna Friel, John Cleese, Kirsty Young, Jo Brand, Steve Coogan and Sir Lenny Henry.
