The Confession of Clarke Peters
Stephen Mangan asks his guest Clarke Peters to reveal three guilty secrets inside his virtual confessional box. From 2021.
Actor, comedian and broadcaster Stephen Mangan presents a comedy chat show about shame and guilt.
In each episode, Stephen invites a different guest into his virtual confessional box to make three confessions - with remarkable storytelling and surprising insights. In this unconventional chat show, he wants to see what really makes them tick by finding out what they are ashamed of!
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.
In this episode, actor Clarke Peters - famous for his roles as Lester Freamon in The Wire and Albert Lambreaux in Treme - surprises with his stories of youthful indiscretions, hidden loot and embarrassing his brother on the Borscht Belt.
Written and presented by Stephen Mangan.
