About this listen

Joining us at Audible Studios is British actor, Hugh Bonneville.

A familiar face to many, playing Mr Brown in the Paddington films, and Lord Grantham in Downton Abbey, Hugh Bonneville has been on our screens and stages since the late '80s. His love of acting came from the National Youth Theatre, where his hobby turned into a career path. Ranging from Shakespeare to Mr Stink, Bonneville has playing an incredible range of characters, including C. S Lewis in Shadowlands and Philip Larkin. Looking back at his life so far, Hugh has written his memoir, Playing Under the Piano, giving us an insight into one of Britain’s best-loved actor’s life behind the scenes.

We chatted with Hugh about what music meant throughout his dad’s dementia journey, why MI6 holds an interesting place in his family, and how Downton secrets were kept!
