Series 2

Episode 10: Joe Swash

Duration: 44 minutes

First broadcast: on BBC One HDLatest broadcast: on BBC One Wales

TV presenter Joe Swash joins Brian on the sofa to take a look back at the classic television that made him the person he is today.

Brian kicks off proceedings by showing Joe a clip that brings back vivid memories of his childhood, from wacky favourite Grotbags. We then find out what army drama was watched religiously in the Swash household, before touching on a docu-drama series that had us all on the edge of our seats.

Breakfast telly is also on the agenda as we revisit a show that dragged us out of bed for 10 years, and we discover that one of Joe's first big breaks came in a vintage TV advert.

Joe talks openly about his time on EastEnders and his first day on set as lovable rogue Mickey Miller. We bring it all back to the present day as we find out what he loves now. Show less
