The Confession of Marian Keyes

The Confessional

Available for 198 days

Actor, comedian and broadcaster Stephen Mangan presents a comedy chat show about shame and guilt. Each week, Stephen invites a different guest into his virtual confessional box to make three confessions - with remarkable storytelling and surprising insights. In this unconventional chat show, he wants to see what really makes them tick by finding out what they are ashamed of! Stephen and his guest reflect with empathy and humour on why we get embarrassed, where our shame thresholds should be, and the value of guilt. In this episode, prolific novelist and writer Marian Keyes confesses, from her home in Dublin, details of a disservice she did that still haunts her 20 years after the event. She also tells tales of a lost glove and of Joan of Arc at a fancy dress ball. Written and presented by Stephen Mangan With extra material by Nick Doody Producers: Dave Anderson & Frank Stirling A 7digital production for ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Radio 4, first broadcast in May 2021.
