Rylan: How to Be...

How to Be in the Spotlight – Rylan explores the good, the bad and the ugly of what it's like to be thrust into the public eye – with those who've lived to tell the tale.

Over 12 episodes, Rylan will be joined by guests who will share how they have learned to navigate the spotlight, reflecting on what they did right – and what they did very wrong…

A Mindhouse production for BBC Sounds.
