Russell Brand

Desert Island Discs

Russell Brand, comedian & actor, is interviewed by Kirsty Young for Desert Island Discs.

Brand is described as a 'compelling cultural phenomenon' who in 2006 was, in his own words, "plucked from a life of hard drugs and petty crime and rocketed into the snugly carcinogenic glare of celebrity." It's been five years since he rocked the foundations of the BBC with what became known as the 'Ross Brand scandal', or 'Sachsgate'. He's since gone on to international success with a movie career, best-selling books and all the trappings of life on the A list.
