Summary
Today's guest is a celebrated actor who can seamlessly turn his hand to any number of different roles - be it TV dramas, comedy blockbusters or Tony-nominated runs on Broadway. It's the lovely Stephen Mangan!
After almost becoming a lawyer and instead finding his way to acting after real tragedy, Stephen's gone on to enjoy a hugely successful career on stage and screen. He chats to us about his love for his huge Irish family - he has 52 first cousins! - as well as the importance of a varied CV and how sudden loss can often lead us to becoming more reflective and thoughtful versions of ourselves.
