Louis is using the lockdown to track down some high-profile people he’s been longing to talk to – a fascinating mix of the celebrated, the controversial and the mysterious. In this episode, he speaks to singer and musician, George O’Dowd aka Boy George, who has chosen to lockdown in London rather than Australia. They discuss growing up in the 70s, losing his virginity and a surprise appearance in the A-Team. A Mindhouse production for BBC Radio 4
It's not funny, it's true.

I like that you've got more and more comfortable in this space and I've watched you show all parts of yourself.
We've both cried.
Miss Me with Lily Allen and Makeeta Oliver.

Hello, I'm Louis Theroux and welcome to my podcast series for BBC Radio 4, Grounded with Louis Theroux.
Can you hear me all right?
Like you, I'm in lockdown, and so I've been filling the time by reaching out remotely via the web to people I'm interested in and who like me, maybe looking for connection in these strange times.
Let's do a little sound check.
Is everything looking good?
I've been relying on guests to record their half of the chat, which doesn't always work.
I've stopped it.
