Cher at Christmas and doing needlepoint
Cher: Everybody comes to my house and I made two Christmas stockings for my kids and we always hang them up... I was finishing Silkwood and Meryl [Streep] was making a sweater that had one really long arm and I thought I’ll make a stocking. I’ll needlepoint a stocking because I know how to do that.
On what she is needlepointing now
Cher: We’re doing Spiderman because I know a little boy and he loves Spiderman so I’m making it for him
Rylan asks what she’d say to Jessie Ware as he plays her Jessie’s cover of Believe from Radio 2 In The Park in Leicester and Radio 2 Piano Room
Cher: [I’d say] “I loved being interviewed by you and your mum, but you’re a great singer! Keep it up.”

Rylan: So hang on, you’re saying if I manage to make this happen you’ll be on that stage?
