  • Summary

  • Dermot O'Leary interviews a range of people he greatly admires from the worlds of sport, fashion, politics and entertainment.

    Dermot says: "People, Just People is born out of curiosity to find out more about the lives of individuals that I've watched from afar – but not had the chance to get to know. How they got to where they did, the highs and lows that shaped that journey, and what have they learned along the way?"

Entertaining and educational

A wide range of people being sensitively interviewed. Nice to hear from 'non celebrities' not selling anything just talking.
A great listen.

interesting guests. friendly narration.

A good listen but Dermot talking about himself when guests are telling a tale was a bit off putting but i still enjoyed it and like Dermot but wanted to hear Stephen's stories more.
Defo worth a listen.

I thought this was gonna be just luvvies, but

in fact there are some really interesting people many if whom I was not aware of, and some inside stories on history or sport, entertainment even warfare came out. The host is unassuming and good at his craft, he really brings the individual out so that we do get a sense of being personally introduced to the human being in question. So I am determined to listen to the next series also.

Brilliant podcast series

I loved listening to Dermot O'Leary interviewing such interesting people. Why has this stopped after episode 6? How can I listen to the rest of his interviews?

Excellent Interview

The sort of interview you crave on TV but only given 3 minutes of. Some fantastic anecdotes, well worth the listen.

INTERESTING FROM START TO FINISH

This is a great audio-book full of interviews with interesting people and stories. If, like myself, you love learning something new, this is a great book to hear. I've learned lots of random yet interesting facts about newspaper morals and world war code breakers. Yes, the bits and pieces you pick up are quite random but still make for a great read, or listen. The only minor downside to this audio-book is that Dermot (interviewer) sometimes cuts off the speaker or changes the subject matter too soon. Overall, this is a great audio-book that I enjoyed a lot.

Expert Interviewer

Well of course Dermot O’Leary is a terrific interviewer, but I have to mention it because he asks questions that do in fact reveal people as they are naturally, just people. I’m able to listen to what they’re discussing in a relaxed way that broadens my mind about individuals, their quirks, and all the thoughtfulness that brings even more topics to mind.
