What does Emily Atack think about still discussing The Inbetweeners?
anything feel free I'm really nervous sorry can I just say because I'm such a fan of this podcast and I'm such a fan of yours and this is a very big thing for me and I'm really nervous well if it makes you feel better
it's not as good as it seems oh good okay and actually good and actually the edit does a lot of work okay good even if you walk out of here thinking we've laid a big messy turd yeah just so you know that's how most episodes feel okay good so it will be fine great so i'm going to do your intro okay there's any factual inconsistencies yeah uh let me know okay OK. Do you want to do some breathing before we start?
No, I'm all right. I stupidly had three coffees as well. And I had to down a glass of champagne next door. So I'm just a bit... Three coffees and a champagne?
Yeah, I know. Fucking hell, let's do this. Do you want a chocolate or...? I'm all right. Mandy?
Yeah, welcome. I'm Emily Atack and I'm going to be in the Ramesh Ranganathan podcast.
Oh, shut up, Romesh.
This episode is brought to you by Virgin Red. So Virgin Red means go. That's the whole idea. And I'm telling you that because I am by nature someone who does not go. I'm world class at talking myself out of things. Someone says, let's go away for the weekend. And within 30 seconds, I've already taught myself out of it. So I stay home, thinking about all the things I want to be doing. Which is why Virgin Red is, honestly, brilliant for people like me. Virgin Red offers epic rewards from the brands you love. And you earn Virgin points from doing things you're already doing. Your travel, your shopping, your day-to-day spending. And those points unlock trips away, hotel stays, live music, and experiences that become the story you're telling for years.
Moments that become memories. All you have to do is go. Go somewhere you've been meaning to. Go do something you never knew you could. And once you're there, you remember exactly why you said yes. Even better, your virgin points don't expire, so you can let them build up until something epic comes along. And it will. Ready to dive in? Become a member and start unlocking rewards that make life feel a little more epic. OK, shall we do it? We've got an intro for you now, Emily. I'm really excited for you to hear this.
Oh, my God.
My guest today is an actor, comedian and TV personality. She started her career in dramas like Blue Murder and Heartbeat before landing her breakthrough role as Charlotte Hinchcliffe in the millennial classic The Inbetweeners. Since then, she's appeared in indie films, captured the nation's heart in I'm a Celebrity and fronted three series of her own comedy show. She also made a deeply personal BBC documentary and starred in Rivals, one of 2025's hottest shows. Now she's teaming up with Danny Dyer for a brand new quiz reality show, Nobody's Fool. It's Emily Aytar!
I've gone all red.
What do you think?
When people list all of the things that you've done, you go, oh, thank you for saying all that. It's like, oh, no, yeah, I have done those things.
I've gone all embarrassed. Well, you don't need to. I mean, you did it, didn't you?
Yeah.
If people come up to you and talk to you about the in-betweeners, Are you one of the people that will happily talk about that fondly or do you think that's from ages ago? I don't want to talk about it now.
Happily talk about it fondly. My name is just Big Tits. So it's just people come up to me and they just go, Big Tits, can I have a photo? Big Tits. Strangers say that to you? Actual strangers. But it could be... I could be in the street. I could be at the garden centre just having a jack of potato in the cafe. It could be anything. And even the lovely post lady I have, she goes, hello, big tits, can you just sign that for me? It's just big tits, big tits. It went from Charlotte Big Jugs to, yeah, and now it's just big tits.
That feels like it's flirting very much with unacceptable, doesn't it?
Oh, yeah, totally. But it's, you know, I shout from the rooftops how against all of this I am.
How does Emily Atack handle unwanted attention and comments from strangers?
But it's just people genuinely don't even, they don't even mean it in that way.
