From a mother's guilt to a love of the 80s, this heroic episode shares how actor and comedian Nina Wadia OBE turned her son's shock diagnosis into an inspirational quest to find a cure for type 1 diabetes, whilst taking on a whole host of iconic characters along the way.
Getting serious about life behind the scenes of comedy sketch shows and soaps, Nina opens up to Andrew and Olga about being angry with God, understanding her purpose in life and ditching a seven year contract in LA to focus on her family and fundraising.
Laugh and cry along in this cliffhanger-meets -cheese -steak Subway delight, as comedy sketch show royalty Nina Wadia meets Split Ends' favourite salon trainee, Androulla.
And if you're holding out for a hero too, tune in to hear all about Nina's musical family, and her next hair-raising, back-combing project, 'Now that's what I call a musical!'
