Something from the Cellar: Tom Allen

Today, in honour of Pride Month, we’re revisiting our wonderfully warm and witty conversation with the brilliant Tom Allen – comedian, presenter, and unapologetic national treasure!


In this episode, Tom reflects on growing up in Bromley as a fabulously strange teenager who had a love of dinner parties, fine silverware, and a flair for the theatrical. He shares how it felt to never quite fit in, what it means to embrace who you are, and how he’s finally grown into the life he always felt he was meant for.


It's a charming, funny, and quietly powerful listen – enjoy!
