We've come this far, Whoopi Goldberg, and I've not got much more time to talk to you.
I know you're over in London because you're producing Sister Act, which is going to be on stage.
The role of producer, is that one that sits easily with you?
Is it, than performing?
Yeah, I like that.
As easy as that.
For me, yeah.
Do you like leading a team?
Are you quite a sort of somebody who likes to control what's happening?
And is it that you get offered movies that you think that's just not for me or you just don't get offered movies?
So Sister Act was for somebody else?
Before we go into the next piece of music then, as you know, this is Desert Island Discs and I'm going to cast you away onto a desert island.
I'm imagining that because of Vermont and where you go to be lonely and happiest is a choice for you that being on a desert island might be quite nice.
Wouldn't get lonely?
Would you get lonely?
So tell me why you've chosen track eight and then we'll come to the other stuff.
Joan Sutherland and Jean Berbet singing the flower duet from Lachme by Delibes.

What's your book going to be?
