Bradley Walsh revealed a sweet detail about his Pop Larkin costume when he appeared on The One Show on Tuesday, October 11. The Chase host and actor, 62, chatted to Jermaine Jenas and Lauren Lavern about ITV drama series The Larkins, which returns for its second series on Sunday, October 16.
Bradley explained that, in the show, his character wears his real life grandfather's hat, which was bought sometime around the Second World War. Upon being shown a photograph of him wearing it in The Larkins, Bradley said: "That's my grandfather's hat. They all worked in East London on the docks of South London and that's the hat that he used to wear."
He added: "After my grandfather died, that was the only thing I wanted from the house," before recalling how he remembers his relative wearing the hat. "I used to wear that hat as a kid and so, my Uncle Lou gave me that, so that came with me and it's in the show." Host Lauren commented on how it was a "lovely touch" to include it in the new series.
