Hugh Bonneville in conversation with Iszi Lawrence

Hugh Bonneville, known for his acclaimed acting in roles from Downton Abbey to Paddington, discusses his hilarious first children’s book with comedian Iszi Lawrence. His hero Rory Sparkes is at primary school in South East London – just as Hugh himself was.

Rory is a boy with a head full of dreams. He might become a strongman and travel the world with the circus. Or he might try to make it as a cowboy – that would be a fan-tas-tic second best. But as Rory plots to make his dreams come true, everything spirals out of control. Will his plans ever work out?
