Was it your idea to bare your bottom in Manchild?
It certainly wasn’t mine, you can be sure of that! The bottom line is that there’s a bit of all of us in all the characters that we play. I’m not like him, he’s a sad piece of work!
What he needs to do is get away from Terry, the Nigel Havers character. He’d looked up to Terry since secondary school and has always wanted to be a Terry. He’d come late to the making money bit, and so was climbing on the bandwagon, but I don’t particularly relate to him. I don’t ride motorbikes – I’d crash them if I did. I’d crash fast cars if I drove them. I’m not particularly whizzy like that, and I’m certainly not a dentist.
