Singer, song writer, activist, and Anna’s former landlord, Dan Gillespie-Sells, is the guest on this
week’s The Filling with Anna Barnett. Catching-up in Dan’s Victorian pub home in east London, the
old friends chat through Dan’s musical journey from attending the Brit School at 16, forming his
band The Feeling, learning his craft performing 10 shows a week in the Alps, and diversifying into
musical theatre. As Dan’s pub is where Anna lived for 10 years, they also remember the many pop-
ups Anna catered there. But did the guests come for Anna’s food or Dan’s Christmas carols?
