High-profile guests confirmed for Scarred For Life season two

Scarred For Life, the podcast based on Stephen Brotherstone and Dave Lawrence’s hit book series, will return for season two on December 23.

Presented by Andy Bush, the voice of Hometime for over 2m listeners on Absolute Radio, the podcast sees a celebrity join Brotherstone and Lawrence to confess three terrifying items or events from their childhood.

Season one, which topped the TV & Film podcast charts in the UK, featured guests including The League of Gentlemen’s Reece Shearsmith, Garth Marenghi creator Matthew Holness and journalist Samira Ahmed.

Season two will launch on Monday December 23 with Little Britain, Sherlock and Black Mirror actor Alice Lowe, followed by a Christmas Day Special exploring the dark underbelly of the festive season. Weekly episodes will follow every Monday morning, with confirmed guests including The Fast Show’s John Thomson and Dinnerladies actor Maxine Peake.

Season two of Scarred For Life will be produced and distributed by Lock It In, the full-service production studio specialising in talent-led, comedy and entertainment podcasts.

Lock It In was founded in May this year by the trio behind breakthrough podcast quiz Guestimators: Bush, Will Nichols (former VP, Content Development at Universal Music) and Matt Cutler, the sports journalist behind ground-breaking documentary The Pirates vs The Premier League.

Other productions in Lock It In’s portfolio include Away Days, the football podcast led by indie rock drummers Chris “Woody” Wood (Bastille) and Piers Hewitt (The Boxer Rebellion) and DEADPOD, a comedy podcast that looks to break taboos around death.
