Rove McManus, a household name who dominated our TV screens throughout the 90s and 2000s. But even the biggest stars face moments of doubt, and Rove opens up about the confronting realisation that the industry had moved on without him. Rather than crumbling under the weight of that, he channelled his love and energy into what he now considers his greatest role yet, being a dad. Rove then shares what's next as he steps forward on an exciting new path.Guest:Rove McManus @rovemcmanus2026 Tour ‘Tonight’s Guest: Rove McManus’.
