Ep 3. Who the F#!k Is Michael Sheen?

In the third episode of Staged's first season, titled "Who the F#!k Is Michael Sheen?," David Tennant and Michael Sheen finally come face to face- virtually, of course. The episode starts with David interrupting Michael's online yoga session with his parents, making him understandably frustrated. David proposes that they both put aside their differences and work together, as they have a show to create. Michael agrees, but warns David that he's on thin ice.

Their first task is to create a promo video for the show, but they can't agree on how it should be done. Michael wants to go for a more serious, dramatic approach, while David wants it to be light-hearted and comedic. They end up shooting both versions, but neither seems satisfied with the end result. They decide to take a break and reconvene the next day.

During their break, David tries to bond with Michael by asking him about his personal life, but Michael is hesitant and defensive.

In the end, Michael storms off after an argument about whether or not he should apologize for something he said in the past.

The episode ends with David expressing his frustration in a vlog, wondering if all this effort is worth it. However, Michael suddenly appears in his video call, ready to reconcile with David and start fresh. They agree to put their differences aside and focus on their show, whether or not they actually like each other.
