Episode Thirty Nine - Charlotte Spencer

For our next episode of ‘This is a Token’, Alex is joined by his current favourite actor Charlotte Spencer.

Charlotte and Alex talk through her deep love of acting which started in childhood. Coming from humble beginnings, her parents have always supported her dream, which has given her the opportunity of performing both on the West End stage with another ‘This is a Token’ guest, Carrie Hope Fletcher as a child, and most recently on our screens as the formidable and uncompromising Nicki Jennings in the very popular series ‘The Gold’ on the BBC detailing*on the Brink’s-Mat Robbery.

Settle down and listen to Charlotte and Alex discuss her fantastically varied career so far, and how Charlotte’s performance has even inspired Alex for our upcoming collections. Be sure to keep your eyes peeled -  *hint, hint*.

‘Charlotte Spencer is my current favourite actor. I’m such a fan I realised I was actually a little bit nervous before she arrived. But of course she was a delight, kind and generous and we soon had too much to chat about. I’m now an even bigger fan, just not so nervous. Thank you Charlotte!’ - Alex Monroe
