Portrait and a Podcast"THE WEE MAN" NEIL BRATCHPIECE | Portrait and a Podcast w/ Daryll #006Neil Bratchpiece is an actor, writer, rapper, improviser and stand up comedian - best known for his portrayal of "The Wee Man". With accolades like getting in the ring with Bubba Ray Dudley, starring in the award winning "The Sharkey", and being a lead writer for BBC's Breaking the News - there was too much to cover in an hour or so - but did my best. I really enjoyed the conversation and photo shoot after, and hopefully you do too. Big thanks to West Brewery for letting us film in their Glasgow Green spot.
