That would have to be a film called Pickup On 101. It was a very interesting story, about a wandering musician and an old guy on his way back to his home town to spend his last days, but they made it into a pile of dishonest trash.
Treating a flock of sheep for foot rot when I was a farm labourer.
I’ve been lucky enough to act for 35 years. The only other job I had was as a cook at a drive-in restaurant, and I enjoyed that as well.
Cleaning toilets at McDonald’s when I was 16.
A vet, but I wasn’t smart enough.
A horse. I have two: Vesperal Dream and According To Sarah.
Cows in the field next door.
Apart from two Olympic gold medals, I’m proud of finishing fifth in the Foxhunter Chase at the Cheltenham Festival in 2016, having never ridden a horse 12 months earlier.
Lots of people, mainly for being so absent from their lives while I was concentrating on sport. I’d also like to say sorry to my dad’s mum, because, aged four, I told her she was the worst cook in the world.
I would love more horses.
