It’s been a year since The Traitors series two introduced us to the absolute icon that is Diane Carson and we’ve basically watched her every move since then, waiting to see what she does next.
The whole country became obsessed with the fizzy rosé-loving queen when she appeared on the BBC show last January. Frankly, her on-screen funeral will forever be burned into our brains.
12 months on, Diane has just announced an exciting new career move and we can’t wait.
Last week, Diane announced (at RuPaul’s DragCon UK of all places) that she’s launching a podcast with heat’s very own Beary Poppins (the drag alter ego of our digital writer Ben Pulsford) called Spill The Fizz.
After becoming friends last year, Beary and Diane have decided to get to know each other a podcast – ‘cause where else? – where they’ll be sharing an insight into the real lives and some home truths.
Basically, expect an hour of fun, chaos and silly and serious conversation each week.
Oh, and there will be some very special celebrity guests too. We’re sold.
‘I'm excited to be entering into the world of podcasting as it provides me with yet another unique opportunity,’ Diane told heat.
‘I met Beary Poppins when he was assigned to interview me on Zoom for heat and we got on like a house on fire. We had such a laugh at another face-to-face interview that we kept in contact.’
She continued, ‘The relationship just works - despite the many differences: age, background, morals (Beary wouldn't let me 'borrow' a wine glass out of a pub!) and interests.
‘A regular podcast provides a great opportunity to get to know each other deeper. We always have a laugh together and we look forward to sharing those laughs with you lovely lot.'
We’re ready.
Spill The Fizz with Diane and Beary is coming soon.
