Live from his luxury apartment in London’s glittering East End, Dean Learner: club owner, celebrity manager, restaurateur, entrepreneur and publisher of high-class gentlemen’s magazines(including Flesh Wrangler and Skin City), invites you to meet some of his closest friends, Man to Man.

Mr. Learner is delighted to host a series of exclusive, in-depth discussions with six of the most monumental names in the world of The Arts and Entertainment; towering figures of the industry whom, entirely coincidentally, he also represents. Joining him will be: world-renowned horror writer GARTH MARENGHI; former Formula Five World Motor Racing Champion STEVE PISING; GLYNN NIMRON, star of the long running sci-fi series Galacticops; legendary folk guitarist, MERRIMAN WEIR; AMIR CHANAN, astounding master of the psychic arts; and RANDOLPH CAER, perhaps Britain’s most underrated character actor. All are men of substance and erudition; heroic pioneers within their chosen fields.

The series lovingly provides these living legends with a suitably respectful forum in which they are finally able to share with us their thoughts, dreams, and philosophies. In this regard the show can be placed in the tradition of the Socratic dialogues of The Symposium. With cocktails.

Man to Man with Dean Learner offers an oasis of culture and sophistication in the rancid scrubland of depravity that passes for modern television. As Dean himself says: “I see this show as a shimmering beacon of refinement and class. It’s my legacy. My The Hay Wain. My Bat Out of Hell.”

As we all know Garth is Britain’s foremost writer of horror fiction. Famed for his many novels of terror and for his television horror classic Garth Marenghi’s Darkplace, he has graciously accepted DEAN’S invitation to discuss his banned feature film War of the Wasps and his much-publicised hatred of the Dutch.



Episode 2 - Steve Pising

Steve is known to his public as multiple former Formula Five Motor Racing World Champion. Hospitalised in the early ‘90s after a horrific accident, which ended his motor racing career and heat-sealed his reproductive organs, this show is STEVE’S first public appearance in over ten years.

Episode 3 - Glynn Nimron

Lyn is a true legend in his field; in this case, episodic futuristic law enforcement television drama series of the mid 1970s. A pioneering half-Hawaiian actor most famous for his role as ‘Bot’ in the classic Sci Fi series Galacticops, GLYNN will be celebrating the release of his 3000th film Space Bandits From Pluto and their Pirate Pals later this year (the release date for which is still unconfirmed, but the film carries an ‘R18’ certificate and will be released exclusively in UK specialist retail outlets).

Episode 6 -Randolph Caer

The underrated character actor, Randolph grants his first television interview in 28 years following his traumatic ‘live’ mauling by TV’s Lennard Ritter.
