In this episode of the Nancy Stevens Lifestyle Show, Nancy takes a deep dive into The Last Showgirl, starring Pamela Anderson, exploring its powerful themes of ageing, ambition, and the unforgiving nature of the entertainment industry. She reflects on how the film challenges societal beauty standards, particularly through Anderson’s decision to go makeup-free on screen, and the harsh realities of a career built on looks and performance.
Next, she turns her attention to The Apprentice Easter egg disaster, breaking down the latest episode’s hilarious missteps, branding blunders, and one contestant’s dramatic exit that left Lord Sugar stunned. From bizarre product choices to awkward pitch meetings, it’s another unforgettable week of reality TV chaos.
Nancy also shares her review of Murder on the Orient Express at Milton Keynes Theatre, where Agatha Christie’s classic whodunit takes on an unexpectedly camp and comedic twist. While not quite the suspenseful thriller she anticipated, the production delivers plenty of laughs, surprising performances, and an entertaining night at the theatre.
Literature lovers are in for a treat as Nancy discusses Yinka, Where Is Your Huzband? by Lizzie Damilola Blackburn—a witty and heartfelt novel dubbed the ‘Black Bridget Jones’. She explores the novel’s themes of cultural expectations, family pressures, and navigating modern relationships, as well as the struggles authors face when writing a second book under the weight of expectation.
Finally, Nancy is joined by Flora Rees, Project Manager for MK Lit Fest, for a fascinating conversation about the upcoming festival, what goes into curating a great lineup of authors, and why literary festivals are vital for celebrating books, authors, and the power of storytelling.
From film to theatre, books to TV, and everything in between, it’s a packed episode full of lively discussions, sharp insights, and plenty of laughs!
