Welcome to the latest "Let’s Hae a Wee Blether Aboot Gambling in Scotland" podcast, brought to you by Fast Forward’s Scottish Gambling Education Hub.
In this episode, we look at the connection between Gambling and Football.
We do this through the lens of Steph Shilton, wife of former Leicester City, Nottingham Forest and Southampton legend, Peter Shilton. Peter is still the most capped English player of all times having played for his country 125 times.
In this episode, Steph speaks about her journey to support her husband through the ups and downs of gambling and how this led her to work with Gordon Moody.
We also spoke with Steven Jardine from Street League about their partnership with Fast Forward through the vehicle of sport.

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.
