Men on Show
"Candid conversations with everyday heroes"
Heroes don't always come regaled in capes or fly through the air.
Sometimes you could (and quite likely have) walked past one on the street and not even known.

Join Andrew Pain as he finds and chats to these "everyday heroes", ordinary men who have done, and are doing extraordinary things.
