October 24, 2024 Sir David Jason
From Del Boy in Only Fools and Horses, to Detective Inspector Jack Frost in A Touch of Frost, and Granville in Open All Hours – Sir David Jason has been a staple of British television since the 1970s, ranging everything from slapstick comedy, to police drama, and animated hits. Speaking about a life of Plot Twists on screen, he pays tribute to his mentor Ronnie Barker and shares how “The Guv'nor” ceremoniously passed on the baton. David also talks about his enduring love for creating characters (think of the voices of Dangerous, or Mr. Toad) and pitches a new Mission Impossible spin-off to Tom Cruise, in response to the fact that Hollywood is the last thing on his list to conquer.

July 17, 2024 Danny Dyer and Ryan Sampson
In a career that has spanned TV-soap fame on Eastenders, films roles including The Football Factory, theatre stints under the mentorship of Nobel Prize winning dramatists Harold Pinter, and even Celebrity Gogglebox (alongside his Love Island star daughter Dani) - it seemed that Danny Dyer had pretty much done it all. That was until actor and writer Ryan Sampson (Plebs/Brassic), suggested he play the lead role in a bombastic new Sky Original comedy, Mr Bigtsuff. Telling the story of two estranged brothers, Sampson and Dyer explore themes of "broken families, fragile masculinity and… carpet sales” in a hilarious and at times poignant romp. Joining Tom, they discuss some of the biggest plot twists in their careers including a wild first meeting in Bulgaria filming Plebs, with limoncello shots in tow.

All six episodes of Mr Bigstuff are available to watch on NOW and Sky.
