Derry Girls' Siobhán McSweeney is sick of Stanley Tucci! 😂 | Dish Podcast | Waitrose

Siobhán McSweeney always wanted to be an actor but her parents wanted her to be a teacher. Siobhán’s big break came in 2018 when she was chosen to play Sister Michael in Derry Girls. The show was a huge hit and Siobhán won a BAFTA for her performance in 2023.
Now a big star of the small screen, you can catch her presenting The Great Pottery Throwdown on Channel 4 and starring in the Disney+ comedy series Extraordinary.
As it’s Easter, Nick pops a bottle of Waitrose Champagne Blanc de Noirs and Angela prepares a feast: Slow-roast lamb shoulder with beer and carrots, potatoes dauphinoise and purple sprouting broccoli with anchovies, garlic and lemon, all delicious recipes from Julius Roberts.

I actually have no clue who any of these guests are because I‘m from Austria, but they are just such lovely and charismatic hosts and all the guests are also so funny and amazing that I really enjoy watching strangers eating and having a chat with literally zero context 😂♥️

[@samirakrodel]

omg does that mean you havn't seen "Derry Girls"? I cannot believe I get to recommend this show to someone, everyone I know has seen it - it's irish, it's hilarious and it is sooo cute and quirky! Give it a try!

[@samirakrodel]

And while your at it - you should also try Extraordinary! Just as quirky but a bit more heartfelt!

[@EmmaMendez]

Oh my babes!! You need to watch Derry Girls!! It's so funny

[@mral8145]

If Derry Girls isn’t on Austrian Netflix, you have to protest!!

[@juliasantini]

@@mral8145 No worries, it’s on the German Netflix which normally (as in: in most cases) has the same the shows and films as Netflix Austria

[@kataszamel4525]

The Dish logo being perfectly on the plant pot when the camera cuts to Siobhán is so satisfying.

[@Fionn-Greyship]

You sound like someone who shops at Waitrose…. In a good way 😂

[@justohall]

Not sure who Waitrose is (a shop? could google :) but lining that up was done perfectly!

[@amberinezaki969]

"Dump the f*cker!" Love the straight talking Irish humour!

[@sidigitalanimation]

I love when the crew laugh too at what happens. Really makes it feel like EVERYONE is having a fun time.

[@CC-zf4yv]

They should have Siobhan & Stanley on an episode together!

[@JuiceMyRandomness]

That would be awesome to watch!

[@intrawovenarts]

Angela's laughs in this one are so full and hysterical, it's everything 😅💗

[@DeliaLee8]

So many things to love about this podcast and this episode in particular. It's so real - Angela cleaning her shirt with a napkin, Siobhan with the napkin as a bib and as always amazing and funny and interesting conversation.

[@rhiannawynroberts1811]

“I’m sort of sick of him” 🤣

[@KryCaNe]

Why not have more episodes in full? This is a brilliant podcast, easily my favourite.

[@watergirl403]

Already listened to the podcast but had to come watch the video version too because she was such a delighful guest. Thank you for offering both formats!

[@Becausing]

I could listen to Angela laugh ALL DAY.

[@KryCaNe]

I checked out Siobhán McSweeney’s BAFTA speech and now anytime I’m in need of something uplifting I watch it. Wonderful episode to all involved.

[@IDGAF_AboutYourLuckyCharms_238]

So excited you have her on she’s sooo funny!! Loved her as Sister Michael! They need to do a second series of Derry Girls where they look at all the girls and James life now as adults.

[@CC-zf4yv]

Or a Sister Michael one!

[@zenden6584]

Listened to this yesterday while cooking dinner ,had to come here to watch it this morning because I absolutely loved this one and love Siobhán she is brilliant ❤

[@Isabelledttt]

Thank to all of us who begged to have this podcast be on video format 🎉🎉❤

[@TheNinga360]

I’m from a rural American town and I have limited knowledge of most of the guests on this podcast but it’s incredible and I watch every piece of content they put out

[@meshezza]

I don’t think I could love a podcast more than DISH genius idea, Waitrose!

[@nicolad8822]

She completely bonkers, in a good way.

[@allessab6595]

[@MM-bz3ty]

[@dianegilbank5095]

This was hilarious! Thank you for making me laugh! And that lamb sounded delicious Angela!

[@clairegolden7747]

Just love you on the pottery throw down. You are just so awesome

[@htmc2022]

Angela, I thought you were telling everyone to kneel for the Blessing before beginning to eat! When you said “Right, Kneel” In a loud forthright manner - I thought you were abruptly telling them - “Put your forks down! - don’t start eating yet! I am about to say Grace - so KNEEL! 😂❤😂❤

[@querenabreu1025]

As Medical Medium said: “Napping stabilizes and balances our being, but some believe it’s lazy. Napping is actually a gift from the Angel of Rest and a form of meditation. A 10-15 minute nap can reduce stress and improve vitality. You can ask the Angel of Rest for help with this and for specific healing during this time. When you open your eyes, you’re refreshed and ready to continue the day. Rest is an act of self-compassion and love for yourself.”

[@kirtanashanchez6534]

Sister Michaelllllll! ❤❤❤❤

[@daleanaaa9961]

[@patriciadevins8559]

Love this❤

[@Liv_ing_in_ruins]

Love Grimmy and Ange together, always a good watch no matter who the guest is! Loveee

[@Adustlandfaerytale]

Yaasss. I'd love to also see Raye on here 😊

[@user-ii6xi4ex5p]

feel like it would really add to the experience if you did some zoom in inserts of the food when they’re describing it

[@sreddy5845]

I like the Angela is cleaning up the spill in the middle of a podcast

[@imxxnsushi]

Yaaaay love her!!!!

[@sebeckley]

Alison Roman puts a bottle of red wine in a lidded Dutch oven with a lamb shoulder and potatoes and carrots. She cooks it for 10 hours. Ten.

[@christianeduardo1]

Oven temperatures are different in the US… with the time change, jet lag, etc, etc….

[@kathybutterfield2760]

I saw Nick interview Harry Stiles and knew him as Grimmy? It was quite charming the two of them together. I like his voice and manner, but his wit is the best. Wit and humor. Very intertaining. I'll look for more shows like this. The chef was great too and I loved it was about food and cooking. Done a bit differently. Well done. As an American I wasn't familiar with the funny actress but liked her too. Cheers!

[@immaseahorse24]

lol what? ​@@christianeduardo1

[@immaseahorse24]

Who is Alison Roman?

[@Catwomaniya]

I love her from derry girls. She the best. Nun everrrr❤❤. Love from India

[@zky7643]

[@johannabjorkell4226]

[@tarasmyth9985]

Comedy gold! I love her, best presenter of GPTD too!

[@nolongerlistless]

Siobhán - hero of free expression ❤!

[@berrylee2442]

The one & only Sister George Michael ❤❤❤

[@meganhines8676]

I love this show. Also I love Ange and Nick.

[@ChrisLovesThisGame]

For some reason I think if I was Julia Roberts I would search things like this out and comment on them. Like "Yes, my green bean casserole is famous, thank you very much." Just out doing my own press 😂 Do I like attention? Maybe a little. Guess my sign?

[@craigmills3583]

Two power house women. Love it

[@DerekMeyers-db9xu]

Sister Michael is iconic

[@bbi-bbi-bbeat-itxd1858]

omg... "we're not built to hear ourselves" is so metaphorical...and a wild thing to know about one self 0.0

[@peggyarbona3419]

Love her

[@mageaunaturel]

OMG, my naps are 2h too! And I've always said someone must invent teleportation. Common the new generation 🤣

[@sunnyrolfs]

I dont know who any of these people are ever including the hosts but im falling in love with angela

[@DerekMeyers-db9xu]

God I love this woman

[@julierogers1155]

I am feeling that, too, Siobhan ... too much Tucci.

[@19031589]

17:25 I really want to know what she said that Waitrose wanted to cut away from 😂

[@gavinoreilly219]

She like the female version of Richard Corrigan😂

[@kylemadlowin759]

She’s great

[@loveyoud2881]

I LOVEEEE HERRRRR SHES SO FUNNY !!! And the food looked so good omg

[@sassmonster3422]

She’s BRILLIANT in Derry Girls!

[@commonsens3]

We need sister michael spin off series

[@asanglajamir4437]

Please post the saoirse-monica Jackson episode

[@MsCj109]

That scientific fact at the end would explain why some people believe they can sing 😂

[@norasophia1943]

Love it, but who’s Stanley?

[@kamerantaylor7286]

❤

[@jacocharo]

Ri-oh-ha. Extra points if you can roll the r. However, under so circumstances should there be a hard c or k sound before the a

[@Tao_Tology]

Ree-ock-ahh.

[@Belfastboi]

Siobhan’s hair is verging on psychopath

[@laurab2223]

Ridiculously middle class but regardless you are all very entertaining 😂

[@StephanieS3062]

Is Timothee Chalomet next guest?

[@hannah_the_harp7333]

Uncanny resemblance to Louis Walsh

[@cmwau]

Can’t unsee it now 😂 Siobhan is such a great actress

[@bonnysyk2739]

Sister Michael is the beeeeeeeeeeesssssttttt!!!
