  • Published

A soap star and I'm a Celebrity winner has said recordings of children's stories he made for his son have snowballed into a series of audiobooks and had become "endless ideas about getting more education to kids".

Danny Miller and his friend, radio presenter Nigel Clucas, began recording the bedtime stories under the name Albert's Bookshelf.

The actor, from Stockport, plays the role of Aaron Dingle in ITV's Emmerdale.

He said people from more than a hundred countries had downloaded his audiobooks.
