Russell Tovey — on why dogs are special and telling queer stories

‘Looking’ and ‘American Horror Story: NYC’ star Russell Tovey joins the show. Over samosas, Russell tells me about growing up as a queer kid in ‘90s Essex, dating using astrology, and his special bond with his pup Rocky. Plus, we get into his new film ‘Plainclothes,’ which made a splash at Sundance. This episode was recorded at Kricket in Shoreditch in East London.
