The new Postman Pat, Stephen Mangan, chats to us about the film, about children's telly, and on a darker sequel...
Interview
The new Postman Pat (as heard in Postman Pat: The Movie, due in cinemas this Friday) has two voices. When he's singing, he magically switched to Ronan Keating. When he's not? He's Stephen Mangan. And the day after the film's premiere, we had a chat with the man himself...
You're Postman Pat.
I know! Can you believe it?
It's a surreal thing to have that claim. There are fewer Postman Pats in the world than there are James Bonds.
That's true, I hadn't thought of that. You make a very good point!
Ken Barrie was the original Postman Pat of course.
That's right.
A friend of mine met him outside a pub once, and in everyday conversation he sounded nothing like him. But in a second, he switched that famous voice on.
