SUCCESSION star Brian Cox will appear in a one-off interview special on the BBC next month.
The 75-year-old Dundonian, who plays media tycoon Logan Roy in the HBO hit series, will discuss his iconic role with Amy Irons in an exclusive interview.
Brian will reveal candid details about his childhood in Dundee, his father's passing, his mother's mental health struggles and living with his sister.
The independence campaigner will also chat about his early career and feeling a sense of belonging when he joined the theatre company Dundee Rep.
He said: "I love actors ... they’re fundamentally family orientated and that’s the family and that was the thing going into Dundee Rep because I never had a family … my childhood was pretty chaotic."
Produced by QuigleyFilm, the interview will be broadcast on BBC Scotland on April 12 at 10pm.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
Callum Baird, Editor of The National
