To hear the rest of this series search for The Likely Dads on BBC Sounds. Former Blue Peter presenter Tim Vincent hosts a new comedy discussion series. Tim has undertaken many challenges throughout the course of his life - from painting Blackpool Tower and snow survival training with the army in Norway to flying in Tornado jets and running the New York marathon. But do any of them compare to his latest challenge - being the middle-aged father to two-year-old twin boys? And how does his experience of fatherhood so far compare to that of other dads? In this first episode, Tim and his fellow Likely Dads, Russell Kane and Mick Ferry, reflect on their expectations of fatherhood, from pregnancy through to their kids' teenage years and adulthood. Is it easier becoming a dad when you’re full of the vigour of youth or when you’re a bit older and, hopefully, wiser? In a regular feature, we ask the children of one of our Likely Dads a series of questions to determine which of them knows their children better - and vice versa. Our special guest Likely Dads joining Tim, Russell and Mick this week are actor Chris Bisson and comedian Che Burnley. A Made in Manchester production for BBC Radio 4
