So with this film, it's obviously a huge epic. What for you personally was the biggest challenge
-
you had to overcome?
-
Um...
-
My uh...
-
Overcome...
-
Well, my lack of any talent. I had to overcome that, but I got it with sleeping with the
-
right people, and it's always the way forward, I find. If you've got it where it counts...
-
(whistles)
-
How do you think I got my job?
-
I didn't want to say. I didn't want to presume. But we all got there the same way.
-
Everyone here has pretty much slept with Peter Jackson.
-
Yes. Yes.
-
That's what we're getting to.
-
Apart from me, yet.
-
Apart from you... Yeah. What time is it? You've got ages.
-
There's always time. You've got ages.
-
Well to be fair, you might like to hear this. James Nesbitt was very complimentary. He credited
-
you with carrying the whole film.
-
Well, that's very sweet of him. I mean, I wish that were true, but Pete carries it.
-
Pete has the shoulders of a titan. He carries all of this stuff, and I do my best but you know...
-
Yeah, we all just do our best. That's all.
-
I've heard you have quite a bit of fun. I've heard Cumberbatch is a good drunk.
-
Is he? Apparently.
-
I've not... yeah. I've not really seen Ben drunk, particularly. We didn't really cross
-
over on this at all, and we don't really drink much during Sherlock because there's so many
-
lines to learn.
-
I can imagine. Can you tell us something about shooting these films that surprise fans?
-
Uh, yes. That it was mainly fueled by cocaine, yeah. Mainly, not only, but mainly fueled
-
by cocaine. Not all of it was obviously. The rest of it was speed balls, but a lot of it
-
was just coke.
-
Okay, and finally with that in mind, if you had this pile of wealth behind you and it
-
was all yours, what would you Martin Freeman spend it on?
-
I already have got that. Did you see my garage? Yeah, that's mine.
