This week on Table for Four, we're joined by Heartstopper stars Tobie Donovan and Jenny Walser for a warm, funny and emotional conversation as they look back on the Netflix phenomenon that changed their lives.
Over food inspired by the show, Tobie and Jenny share what it was really like filming Heartstopper over three seasons and the upcoming finale film, from cooking dinners together between shoots to the bittersweet experience of saying goodbye to characters they've lived with for years. They reflect on the friendships formed on set, the moment they realised the show's global impact, and how filming in Paris became one of the most unforgettable experiences of the series.
They chat about dream dinner party guests, vegetarian cooking, favourite comfort foods and the career paths that almost took them in completely different directions. Plus, things descend into complete chaos as the pair take on one of Table for Four's most disgusting food challenges yet.
