Dave Johns and Parker Sawyers

I, Daniel Blake star Dave Johns can be seen in later-life romcom 23 Walks, opposite Alison Steadman and some cute dogs. He tells me about his life in comedy, from running clubs in Newcastle to winning at Cannes, his first sex scenes and singing with fishermen in Cornwall.

Actor Parker Sawyers, who played Barack Obama in Southside With You, now stars in Vietnam-set drama Monsoon. He joins me to run through his influences - and impressions - from Eddie Murphy to Amadeus and Kanye.
