How wonderful to still be looking for new stuff and still be improving and still getting great roles.

What else am I going to do with my life?

Well, you could stand behind the bar.

Fantastic, fantastic.

Well, if I may be so bold, I would suggest that BAFTAs and Oscars might be on the cards.

I know it's probably bad luck to talk about that kind of stuff, but this...

and your role in it just feels like it's got hit.

And it's a great film.

Ian McKellen, thank you very much for talking to us.

Thank you, Simon.

The always entertaining Ian McKellen talking about his new movie, The Christophers.

It's going to be reviewed next week.

We've both seen it.

And I thought, I think you could tell from that conversation, I really, really enjoyed it.

It is a very, very Ian McKellen performance.

None, none more Ian McKellen.

Okay.

Full review of the Christopher's coming on next week's program.

So let's talk about legends then, because you've heard from Stephen Coogan.

He was on last week's show because of all the various, you know, restrictions and embargoes.
