From iconic roles in Neighbours and Shortland Street to his many stage appearances, Stephen Lovatt has clearly never lost the passion for the craft of acting in his 40 year long career. 

In the episode, Stephen joins Suzanne Paul and Andrew Papas at the dinner table to chat about his legendary roles, his upcoming work performing two one-man-shows written by kiwi playwright Bruce Mason, and his stint working as an Uber driver when the acting gigs weren't coming. 

Plus Suzanne tells the story about how she once helped catch a wanted fraudster while she was working as a camp photographer. It's a story you've got to hear to believe!
