Henning Wehn: Oatcakes, Currywurst and Chicory

Comedian Henning Wehn joins Spooning With Mark Wogan this week.

Henning opens up on how he moved from Germany and arrived in the UK to “learn English” and never quite left. He reflects on his childhood, his journey into comedy and how his outsider perspective shaped his voice on the British circuit. Plus, Mark dives into his vegan lifestyle, put sBritish and German cuisine head-to-head in a bread test and explores how attitudes to comedy have shifted over the years. Finally, Henning tells the extraordinary story of the time he was mistakenly listed as a missing person by Interpol.
