Londoner Tom has a very distinctive voice, and his soothing tones work perfectly for sending children to sleep.

A father to 12-year-old son Louis, the Peaky Blinders star explained he decided to return to film six more episodes for the BBC as he has been feeling vulnerable during the lockdown.

Announcing the exciting return, he said: "Hello. I’m Tom. Sometimes, on a day like this, I feel strong and happy.

"But, on other days, I just need somebody to give me a hug."

...We'd give you a hug Tom?
