S9 EP35: Richard Armitage (Video Edition)

This week on Life’s A Beach, Alan Carr is joined by actor, writer and all-round talent Richard Armitage. From his early holiday memories in Anglesey to skiing adventures, to living in New York, and even bumping into Lady Gaga on a flight, Richard shares some amazing travel tales from his acting career. He opens up about writing his new book (and how his stories are getting optioned!), how filming The Hobbit made him fall in love with New Zealand, and we find out where he’d like to be at 100 years old.
