Ragab s stories will be a new series on the same channel, with the actor presenting his own stories about the country s heritage.
Born in 1950, Sayed Ragab has become one of the best-known Egyptian film actors. He began his acting career in theatre, where he still occasionally performs, while his film career launched with Small Dreams ( Ahlam Saghira ), a 1993 film directed by Khaled El-Hagar and starring Mervat Amin and Salah El-Saadani.

Ragab continued to collaborate with El-Hagar, including in his award-winning 2011 film Longing (El-Shou ), to which Ragab wrote the script and acted alongside Sawsan Badr.
Ragab appeared in many other movies and television series collaborating with well-known directors and actors. His most recent works include acting in the short film Habib (2019), feature film Sons of Rizk 2 (2019), television series Nasr El-Saeed (2018) and Crossroads (2020).
