The Confession of Sheila Hancock

Episode 3 of 6

Actor and writer Sheila Hancock admits to some misbehaviour, snobbery and disregarding the rules to Stephen Mangan. From 2022.

Reluctant national treasure Dame Sheila Hancock - actor, singer, director, novelist and writer is Stephen Mangan's guest.

Together they discuss inappropriate behaviour, snobbery and flagrant rule-breaking.

Stephen Mangan hosts his comedy chat show about shame, guilt and occasional repentance.

Each episode, Stephen invites a distinguished guest into his virtual confessional box to make three 'confessions' to him.

An antidote to conventional talk shows, the guests' stories don't reflect their proudest moments. Stephen wants them to open up about their darker side - however much they may squirm.

Written and presented by Stephen Mangan

Additional material by Nick Doody.

Producer: Frank Stirling

A 7digital production for BBC Radio 4, first broadcast in December 2022.
