About the show

Hosted by Mathew Horne and Joanna Page, each episode of Table for Four brings two hosts and a celebrity duo around the table for an honest, funny and revealing conversation. Whether they’re a married couple, an on-screen pairing, lifelong friends or creative collaborators, the format stays the same: four voices, one table, and no rush to leave. Across the series, Mathew and Joanna invite some of the most recognisable partnerships in entertainment to talk about how they really work together. From first meetings and shared successes to tensions, misunderstandings and moments that changed everything, the conversation goes far beyond the surface. Expect laughter, candour and the occasional curveball, as guests open up about what it takes to maintain a partnership in public, private and everything in between. There’s no formal interview, no press-junket polish, just relaxed conversation guided by curiosity and warmth. Food acts as the backdrop rather than the focus, creating a space where guests can settle in, let their guard down and talk freely about their lives, careers and relationships. At its heart, Table for Four is about connection: how partnerships are formed, how they survive change, and what happens when two people choose to keep showing up for each other. It’s a celebration of collaboration, companionship and the stories that only emerge when you sit down together and stay awhile.
