Description
Former Blue Peter presenter and father to two-year-old twins Tim Vincent continues to host this comedy discussion programme, featuring regular panellists Mick Ferry and Russell Kane. Tim and The Likely Dads talk about how dads are represented, both in life and in the media. The conversation turns to some of the different stereotypes they’ve all heard, or even faced, and asks whether or not some of them are grossly outdated or might actually be accurate. One of our Likely Dads shares their experience of participating in a fly-on-the-wall documentary while raising a new-born baby and some of the comments they were faced with as a result. And what is the difference between being a single dad and a sole parent? In our regular feature, we ask one of the children of our Likely Dads a few questions and hear how accurately the respective Dad can guess their offspring’s answers. Will it result in happy families or tears before bedtime? Our special guests joining Tim, Mick and Russell this week are anti-racism campaigner and businessman Dominic Bruce and comedian and playwright Laurence Clark.
