Episode 1

Danny Dyer travels the country exploring the contentious subject of modern masculinity, questioning whether men have lost their sense of identity and what it means to be male in 21st-century Britain. Along the way, he tries to get to the bottom of toxic masculinity and find out why so many young men are struggling with their mental health and relationships with women. Danny sets out to find out whether there's a rise in toxic masculinity in society and, if there is, why? He meets up with his brother Tony, before tackling controversial influencer Ed Matthews, meeting teenage boys at a London school, and speaking with Mansfield MP Ben Bradley, who's a champion of men's issues. He also meets male victims of domestic abuse, and in Brighton, he chats to members of the Brighton Gay Men's Chorus about overcoming prejudice.
