Brian Cox: "Ultimately it's about the adventure of life, as you don't know what's going to happen." Fatherhood, Logan Roy and Trump.

In this episode of The Lulu Podcast: Turning Points, Lulu chats to formidable actor and fellow Scot Brian Cox.

Brian speaks to Lulu about the big turning points in his life - losing his father; dealing with tragedy; becoming a father himself; and of course - playing the patriarch and media tycoon Logan Roy in the hit TV series Succession.

He talks about how he took parts of his own character into playing Logan Roy; how he's learnt to say no when he's used to saying yes; how to be a father when he lost his own so young; his thoughts on Trump and the future; and how he has learnt not to depend on love from others.

The UK's greatest female rock n roll legend, Lulu, has been in the music industry for over 60 years. She's seen people come, she's seen people go. She's seen people make it, break it, fake it. She has seen them rise, and she has seen them fall.
And all the while she's had a curiosity - what is it that makes people tick? How have they got to where they are? Where does their motivation come from? Where do they get their resilience? When life throws curveballs, how have they overcome them? What are their turning points?
In this brand-new project, Lulu sits down with guests to discuss the pivotal moments in their lives that have shaped them into the people they are today.
