Each FRI week, a figure from the world of entertainment chooses FRI another to interview; the next week, the interviewee turns FRI interviewer, and they in turn pass the baton on to someone FRI else - creating a 'chain' throughout the series. FRI This seventh series starts with Rhys Thomas - perhaps FRI better-known to the Radio 4 audience as Gary Bellamy, host FRI of Down The Line - interviewing the actor Simon Day. They FRI have worked together since The Fast Show, when Simon was an FRI established member of the team, and Rhys was a supporting FRI cast member; Simon also appeared in the sitcom Swiss Toni, FRI which Rhys co-wrote, and provides voices for Down The Line. FRI But Simon, sixteen years older than Rhys, came to prominence FRI in a very different comedy culture to Rhys. He also came FRI from a live background, as opposed to Rhys's first break FRI working as a runner on Shooting Stars; he also waited until FRI this year to have his own show (Radio 4's The Simon Day FRI Show), whereas Rhys had written two series of his own sitcom FRI by the age of 21. All these differences, and all this common FRI ground, makes for an absorbing and hilarious interview.
