Dream Roles

Kiell Smith-Bynoe does Beauty and The Beast

Season 1, Ep. 9
•

Ghosts' Kiell Smith-Bynoe talks to us from the set of 'Dreamland', his new TV series, where he is having to do a lot more crying than he's ever done before. We picked his Dream Role for him based on his requirements 'a villain on a horse'... so Gaston from Beauty and the Beast was the logical choice. We opened a bucket of shame when we pushed him about his worst ever job and frankly we think he was doing the washing up throughout the ep, so apologies if you can hear that!
