With Guest David Perks

Chicken Soap for the Soul with Elisabeth Dermot Walsh and Special Guest David Perks

On this week’s episode of Chicken Soap for the Soul, we are joined by the gifted and self effacing David Perks, the man behind BBC Doctors cult figure, Barry Biglow. David’s portrayal of the hapless security guard was so well received, that what was originally meant to be a one-off character turned into a recurring role spanning 14 years.

Elisabeth and David talk about his first episode as Barry, the image of Midland people on TV, trying not to corpse in front of Elisabeth, the stress of playing a small part in Peaky Blinders and being cornered by a magician.
