The Confessional: The Confession of Cariad Lloyd

Comedy of the Week - A podcast by BBC Radio 4 - Lunedì

Categorie:

Actor, comedian and broadcaster Stephen Mangan presents a new comedy chat show about shame and guilt. Each week, Stephen invites a different guest into his virtual confessional box to make three confessions - with remarkable storytelling and surprising insights. We’re used to hearing celebrity interviews where stars are persuaded to show off about their achievements. Stephen's not interested in that. He doesn’t want to know about his guests' proudest moments, he wants to know what they’re ashamed of. That’s surely the way to find out what really makes a person tick. Stephen and his guest reflect with empathy and humour on why we get embarrassed, where our shame thresholds should be, and the value of guilt. Series guests include Joan Bakewell, Clarke Peters, Phil Wang, Dr Phil Hammond and more. In this first episode, he takes the confession of the award winning improvisational comedian, actor and presenter of Griefcast, Cariad Lloyd. Written and presented by Stephen Mangan With extra material by Nick Doody Produced by Dave Anderson and Frank Stirling A 7digital production for BBC Radio 4
