Tom Davis is one of the funniest people I know. We first met ten years ago on Murder in Successville, the hilarious BBC3 sitcom he co-created with his friend James De Frond. At the time, I had no idea what I was getting myself into. What I didn’t realise then was just how much the show meant to Tom. Murder in Successville wasn’t just another job for him. It was a pivotal moment and there was so much riding on it. This conversation is a rollercoaster. I haven’t laughed that much in a long time - but it also reveals a side to Tom that goes far beyond the laughs. In this episode, Tom shares:Why he took a risk on me for the very first episode of Murder in SuccessvilleHow he desperately wanted to be a dad and feared it might not happenWhy he decided to go sober and what it’s taught him What Timothée Chalamet text him after the Critics Choice AwardsWhat happened when Tom was mistaken for Ed Sheeran’s bodyguard This conversation is a reminder that it’s not always a simple road to success - true success is a journey.
