Clive Anderson goes on tour with his ‘Seven Wonders’
He’s done it all from interviewing big star names such as Robin Williams and Eddie Murphy to offending The BeeGees…
If you could choose your own personal Seven Wonders of the World, what would they be? The host of Whose Line Is It Anyway, Talks Back and Loose Ends, Clive Anderson, is set to embark on a tour with the live version of his hit podcast My Seven Wonders.
The show is a live version of his hit podcast format, in which he invites different guests daily to choose their own personal wonders of the world – his previous guests have included Shaparak Khorsandi, Stephen Fry and Dara O’Brian. Nothing is off-limits, with interviewees able to choose anything and everything – from unbelievable culinary delights to spectacular spots around the world, to people they admire. Each guest guides us through the why, the how and when of their seven passions.
An award-winning and versatile broadcaster and comedy writer, Anderson found success with stand-up comedy and script writing – even during his 15-year legal career – before rising to fame as the host of Channel 4’s Whose Line Is It Anyway? on radio and then television, earning him the 1991 British Comedy Award and won him a BAFTA award in 1990.
