Strictly star reveals secret behind new Channel 4 show

COMIC Bill Bailey has revealed his show Perfect Pub Walks is actually a cover for talking about men’s mental health.

The new More 4 series, which we exclusively revealed last week, sees him ramble around the Peak District, Somerset, Dorset and Suffolk in search of the most spectacular inns.

Each week he will be accompanied by a different familiar face.

It will air later this year.

But Bill revealed: “There’s a very soft theme, which is male mental health.

"We don’t make a big thing of it, but what happens is I talk to men about things they might not generally want to talk about.

"We have a nice conversation and we discuss how they are or what they are up to.”

Of his hopes for the next series, he added: “I want it to be everyone.

"We’re only doing four shows but next series we’ll do [men and women].

“It’s going to be great fun and I am really looking forward to doing more.”
