In this week’s episode, Han is joined by Angus Castle-Doughty. Angus is an actor and film-maker known mostly for portraying Eric Foster in the award-winning Incel storyline at Hollyoaks. After taking it upon himself to lose weight for a role in a major Netflix series, he developed disordered eating and muscle dysmorphia symptoms. Now he’s making a film, Dis-Morph-Ick, in response to that experience and in a bid to increase public awareness of male eating disorders. Angus has been seen in beloved TV shows since 2020 and now is stepping behind the camera to tell this important story.

In this week's episode, we discuss:

• Angus' experience of intermittent fasting and the impact this had on his relationship with food and self.
• Angus' experience of being on holiday and the disordered thoughts that came up for him around food and his weight.
• The impact of the acting world on Angus' relationship with his body and food.
• Angus' relationship with exercise and understanding how you can have a healthy relationship with exercise after a disordered relationship.
• The impact of your body being on camera and how this can encourage rumination and body dysmorphia.
• The impact of before and after photos on your mental health and the health of others.
• Why Angus is creating Dis-Morph-Ick and the premise behind the film.
