Born in Norfolk, Matthew Macfadyen recently celebrated his 50th birthday. His father’s job took the family overseas when he was young, and he grew up in places like Indonesia before returning to the UK to attend RADA. Matthew’s career began on the BBC show, Spooks in 2002. From there he went on to star in Frost/Nixon in 2008, Robin Hood in 2010 and The Three Musketeers in 2011. Matthew played Tom Wambsgans in the smash-hit TV series Succession, winning Baftas, SAG Awards, Emmys, and Golden Globes for his performance. He is here to talk about his appearance in the Waitrose Christmas advert. Nick mixes Matthew his favourite drink, tonic water and bitters, while Angela prepares porchetta with salsa verde & crackling. The experts at Waitrose pair this with a Primitivo from Puglia, Italy. Our trio tuck into the No.1 red velvet bauble dessert for pudding. Nick and Angela quiz Matthew on his biggest roles. He talks about his love of Southeast Asian cuisine, his plans for Christmas, and shares why refuses to make his wife Keeley Hawes, her favourite sandwich.
