Jack Whitehall Offers Us All a Safe Space in Funny Audible Film

Us Brits are masters at the art of embarrassment, whether it be public embarrassment or second hand, from the classics such as the undone trouser zipper, or the nuanced public dog hump we truly know how to make things awkward. However have no fear because comedian and actor Jack Whitehall is here to offer up some words of wisdom and comfort and that’s to “own it” bask in it, don’t become the best version of yourself become your most embarrassing self. 

The message of wisdom is all for Jack Whitehall’s Safe Space which is only available on Audible and the hilarious new film to promote it was directed by The Visionaries' Michael Baldwin. Michael brings his comedy chops to the piece, providing the audience with some beautiful cringe moments. Let's face it we’ve all experienced those ‘I want to curl up into a ball and disappear’ moments at some point in our lives and Michael’s film is a montage of some of those scenarios, however it flips it and instead of wanting to hide the characters own their embarrassment, becoming unphased almost to the point of boasting. 

If only I had this philosophy when I accidentally stopped a stranger in the street because I thought it was one of my old high school friends. I still get PTSD thinking about it. 

Here’s what Michael had to say about his time working with Jack and the shoot - "Nothing beats a shoot with the wonderful unpredictability of the British weather! But the rain didn't dampen spirits and Jack was just as lovely to work with as I had hoped. Although he had someone to hold his umbrella, we just got wet."
