Since Miles went on his previous tour in 2017, he has played Emperor Francis I in Ridley Scott’s film Napoleon, a man who loses a battle, and consequently rather a lot of territory, in spectacular fashion.
He’s been in the TV reboot of The Full Monty on Disney Plus, as well as episodes of Frankie Boyle’s New World Order and Have I Got News For You. He’s also made an award-winning radio series and he’s published a novel.
Yet one sunny day in the middle of all this, he suddenly suffered a brain seizure. This led to the discovery of a tumour the size of a cherry tomato, and a rather pressing need to undergo major neurosurgery.
Obviously, he doesn’t wish to make a big deal of it, but the experience has left him with a story to tell and a few things that he’d like to share. So here he is with latest live show On I Bang.
