-About 20 years ago,

-I worked a lot at Theatr Clwyd.

0:00:050:00:08

-As part of my pre-show ritual...

0:00:100:00:12

-..I'd get to the theatre by five,

-and go to the green room...

0:00:130:00:17

-..where there was a brilliant lady

-who cooked for you if were hungry.

0:00:170:00:22

-Every day, I'd have beans on toast.

0:00:220:00:26

-At the time,

-I was in an English adaptation...

0:00:280:00:32

-..of Un Nos Ola Leuad

-by Caradog Prichard.

0:00:320:00:36

-On the main stage

-at Theatr Clwyd...

0:00:380:00:41

-..Anthony Hopkins was performing

-his version of Uncle Vanya.

0:00:410:00:46

-I remember reaching the theatre,

-going to the green room...

0:00:460:00:51

-..and ordering my beans on toast.

0:00:510:00:54

-When I turned round,

-the only other person in the room...

0:00:550:00:59

-..was Anthony Hopkins.

0:00:590:01:01

-Wow!

0:01:020:01:03

-I asked if I could sit by him.

0:01:030:01:04

-"Come here," he said. "Come here."

0:01:050:01:07

-He started to chat with me.

0:01:070:01:09

-"Are you in the other show,

-in the studio?"

0:01:100:01:14

-"Oh, yes," I said.

-"How is it?" he asked.

0:01:150:01:18

-"It's a masterpiece," I said,

-praising Un Nos Ola Leuad.

0:01:180:01:23

-"It's an ensemble show."

-"Wonderful. I must come and see it."

0:01:230:01:27

-My beans on toast arrived, as did

-Anthony Hopkins' beans on toast!

0:01:280:01:33

-There I was,

-in a small room in Mold...

0:01:330:01:38

-..eating beans on toast with one

-of the world's most famous actors.

0:01:380:01:43

-Brilliant!

0:01:430:01:44

-Anthony Hopkins never came to see

-the show, but he was very busy.

0:01:460:01:50

-Both shows were on at the same time

-and what have you.

0:01:500:01:54

-Full Moon, the adaptation,

-went on to be staged in London.

0:01:550:01:58

-I arrived for rehearsals

-on the first day at the Young Vic.

0:01:590:02:03

-There were huge banners

-outside the Young Vic...

0:02:030:02:07

-..saying, "A masterpiece. Great

-ensemble playing. Anthony Hopkins."

0:02:070:02:12

-I just thought, wow.

0:02:130:02:15

-Anthony Hopkins,

-my beans on toast friend...

0:02:150:02:19

-..has quoted me about this show.

0:02:190:02:22

-It was brilliant.
