Bill Nighy wins best host at British Podcast Awards
The actor has become an agony uncle in what award organisers called an "irresistibly endearing series".
Bill Nighy won the award for best host at the British Podcast Awards, surpassing other well-known podcasters like Louis Theroux, Katherine Ryan, and Lily Allen. The 76-year-old actor, known for his film roles in "Love Actually" and the "Underworld" franchise, recently gained recognition for his podcast "Ill-Advised." The show, described as "a podcast for people who don't get out much and can't handle it when they do," features Nighy offering wry advice and musings on life, music, and books.
This win marks Nighy's shift from acting to podcasting, where he has found success with his "irresistibly endearing" series.
