Cooey! It’s me, Warwick Davis, and in this fifth episode of Figureheads, I'm joined by Melvin Benn, Managing Director of Festival Republic, leading UK event promoter behind Latitude, Reading & Leeds Festivals, Download, Wireless and overseas events including Electric Picnic and Lollapalooza Berlin Festival. Phew, that was a mouthful!

Melvin sheds light on incredible stories behind some of the most ‘stressful’ moments of his career. How does one manage the unexpected? How does a man keep his cool when the world around him is falling to pieces? And how do you tell an international superstar their concert isn’t happening? I can answer that one. You don’t. Come and have a listen...
