Hollywood hunk Tom Hardy returns to CBeebies Bedtime Stories for an entire week
FILM hunk Tom Hardy is coming to the rescue of shattered mums on lockdown by returning to CBeebies’ Bedtime Stories for an entire week.
The Peaky Blinders star, 42, will read kids a tale about a cactus that wants a hug — and give Mummy ideas by saying he sometimes needs one too.
His five previous appearances clocked up more than a million views on BBC iPlayer.
An insider said: “Tom was eager to help families in isolation and felt this might give parents a break.
“CBeebies were obviously delighted as they know he’s such a big hit — especially with mums.”
The dad of three will start “Tom Week” on April 27 by reading Hug Me by Simona Ciraolo.

He will begin: “Hello. I’m Tom. Sometimes, on a day like this, I feel strong and happy.
"But on other days, I just need somebody to give me a hug.”
Other big names to have appeared include Orlando Bloom and Captain America star Chris Evans.
