Barely Rugby: Touring, dirty bingo & Harry Potter
Comedian Harriet Kemsley and England stars Hannah Botterman and Meg Jones deep dive into life on tour and we find out who's a good room-mate and why Hannah is definitely not!
On this episode of the pod Harriet gets some insight from Hannah and Meg all about life on tour - and secrets will be spilled!
Harriet finds out what's good and bad sharing room etiquette; from DJ'ing in the bedroom, having multiple alarms and why Hannah is a bad roommate... snoring might be involved!
As we know Hannah is the social animal of the group and she lets us in on some team bonding exercises from dirty bingo, to karaoke and darts (it basically turns into a stag do!)
Lock 'ins happen occasionally on tour and when they do chaos ensues! From smashing plates at Greek night, dressing up as Harry Potter characters, to a bit of cat play - nothing is off limits!
We also discover why Tatyana Heard is called "Princess Tat", and Meg lets us know why Ellie Kildunne takes ages to get ready - and they reveal how Maud Muir ended up with chocolate custard over her face!
And does Ilona Maher finally pick up the phone to Hannah...?
