A very expensive dehydrator (it cost £30). I’ve made raisins, banana chips and apple chips with it so far. It’s so addictive, I’ll probably start drying my kids soon.
Shares in The Way, which turned out to be the best movie I have done. Written and directed by my son Emilio, it’s a father-son story about the Camino de Santiago pilgrimage.
A Burberry mac: I am not a handbag or shoe person, but I do like a nice coat.
A Mercedes S Class.

Life modelling for a woman who made me recite Shakespeare as I posed. I had a hangover, and it was all a bit much.
I’m convinced heartache almost killed me a few years ago.
Utterly relentless warmth and peace.
