The award winning radio comedy Believe It! starring Richard Wilson and featuring David Tennant continues on BBC Radio 4 on Wednesday 18th December at 11.30am with the second of four brand new episodes.
He narrates the series with his characteristic dead-pan delivery, weaving in and out of dramatised scenes from his fictional life-story. He plays a heavily exaggerated version of himself: a Scots actor and national treasure, unmarried, private, passionate about politics, theatre and Manchester United (all true), who's a confidant of the powerful and has survived childhood poverty, a drunken father, years of fruitless grind, too much success, monstrosity, addiction, charity work and fierce rivalry with Sean Connery and Ian McKellan (not true).
The title - in case you hadn't spotted - is an unashamed reference his famous catchphrase.
In episode two of the second series, Secrets, Richard Wilson discovers a secret relative he never knew he had.
David Tennant stars in this episode as Doug.
