Channel 4 programme about Michael Sheen buying and writing off a load of debt. Very interesting programme, and what a lovely man he is 😊
well worth a watch.

    It's no wonder banks didn't want to speak with him when the profits they make and the interest rates charged are obscene

    I like him as an actor, however, I did find him a bit luvvie and he seemed to be the usual lefty champagne socialist.  

    However, having read about his plans to be a "not for profit" actor and now with him spending a good chunk of his time paying off people's debt I've totally changed my view about him.    What a man he is.  Hopefully some of his peers will follow his fantastic example.

    He sold his house to finance the homeless World Cup because the sponsors pulled out, and donates his time and money to helping people. He’s a socialist and puts his money where his mouth is. 
    The world would be a better place if there were more like him and less greedy people.
