    Hugh Bonneville plays Lord Grantham in the critically-acclaimed television series, Downton Abbey. And it turns out he’s a capital fellow. Here’s an excerpt from a long interview he recently gave. Check it out:

    How has life changed since Downton?

    There isn’t a country I’ve been where someone hasn’t come up and said how much they enjoy the show.

    I was on a beach somewhere in a part of the world where you’d think no one can possibly have seen it and then someone pops out – almost from behind a tree – and says: ‘I didn’t like what happened in episode four,’ or something, so I think I finally get that it’s a global success.

    Are you enjoying major stardom?

    I don’t think I’m a major star. I think I’m an extremely lucky actor. The funny thing is, people have said to me: ‘You must have been so relieved when Downton came along.’ I had been working for 25 years quite happily.

    This just happens to be a show that went beyond anyone’s expectations, certainly mine. When it finishes, I will go back to auditioning for the next job.

    Is Downton still enjoyable to make?

    It is. Everyone gets on, I’m afraid, rather boringly! We’re not throwing chairs at each other. I can’t wait to start filming again – although it’s always bloody freezing in Highclere Castle, where it’s shot.

    Would you ever move to Hollywood?

    It’s not a place I can imagine living. I would miss the seasons. I’ve worked there and I remember waking up one October morning; all the leaves had fallen off the trees – and that was autumn in LA.

    I love the gradual change that we experience here. Having had the most extraordinary floods over Christmas and appalling power cuts, there’s something to be said for living in permanent sunshine.
