Sean Bean: Our Cover Star This Week

When we learned that Sean Bean had consented to grace our cover, it left us all in awe. He’s not typically an actor who seeks the limelight – maybe he prefers his work to do the talking. Yet, in this interview, he emerges as a humble individual who has delivered some of the most outstanding performances on British television in recent years.

Viewers familiar with his portrayals in ITV’s Richard Sharpe novel adaptations might not find it surprising, given his consistent ability to project a raw, dynamic intensity. In the ongoing discourse about increasing representation of working-class actors and narratives on television, Bean serves as an inspiring model for many.

In this city, the gripping and raw BBC series about criminal networks on Sundays, he will undoubtedly motivate individuals who think acting could be their path.

This week’s issue features an engaging conversation we had with Kate Burton, the daughter of the esteemed actor Richard Burton. She shares heartwarming stories about her father, revealing a tender side he kept private, as well as explaining why she continues to refer to his old drama teacher as her grandfather.

Lastly, remember to check out our amazing Doctor Who digital magazine filled with 20 years of New Who content from RT, expertly compiled by our dedicated Whovians. Best part? It’s completely free and can be accessed starting 28th March at the given link.
