Two Chickpeas In A Podcast · Sep 3, 2026 · 1h 8m

The living legend, Dame Meera Syal sits down with the Two Chickpeas to talk about her new memoir, Vigilauntie.

Discussing her life and what has shaped it, her career and the moments that have taught Meera what the Aunties taught her, what kind of Aunty she wants to be and the life lessons she has made. From Goodness Gracious me, The Kumar's at No 42, to Anita and Me and more - we discuss it all!

Vigilauntie is available in all good book shops and online on 3rd September 2026. We urge you to get it/listen to it - Hilarious, but serious, raw and beautiful - we read the memoir, and it is WICKED!…
