Former Aston Villa favourite Lee Hendrie joins Kammy and Ben for this week’s Proper Football Podcast.
He takes us through his disastrous Villa debut and reveals which surprising figure consoled him while the game was going on. He tells us which manager would have eaten himself if he’d been chocolate and how he ended up playing for Nuneaton Griff. He also talks honestly about his mental health issues, how things almost became too much for him to bear, and what strategies he uses to cope with them now.
Meanwhile, Kammy recalls playing against Lee’s dad and explains how he ended up burning one of his team-mate’s football socks.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
