Tom Hardy has become quite the regular on Book at Bedtime since his first appearance in December 2016. The slot is the final piece of the day on the BBC channel aimed at small children, CBeebies.
Since that first appearance he’s been back several times, proving a favourite with children and mothers alike. The British heartthrob who’s played characters such as hardman Alfie in Peaky Blinders and the Krays may not seem like the first choice for reading bedtime stories but both him and his dog have been popular additions to the show.
Today, Tom Hardy is back, and he’s reading The Cloudspotter. Here’s the trailer!
