Finally the Man we all love is back with a show of
his own. But he's not alone bringing back an old friend, some
familiar faces and some new character Dean show is a not so typical
chat show.
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.”
