To be serious, the things you really want to relive are things like bedtime with your daughter when she becomes incredibly entertaining 'cause she doesn't want to go to sleep. they're at their most enchanting 'cause they just want to put it off, so they do a cabaret for you. you sit there thinking, "please don't let this end."

More From Bill Nighy

When you say 'bedtime, bedtime, bedtime!' that's not what the child hears. what the child hears is 'lie down in the dark... for hours... and don't move... i'm locking the door now.'

My life is routine. i wake up early in the morning. i brush my teeth. i sit on the floor of the cell i do not go to breakfast. i stare at a gray cement wall. i keep my legs crossed my back straight my eyes forward. i take deep breaths in and out, in and out, and i try not to move. i sit for as long as i can i sit until everything hurts i sit until everything stops hurting i sit until i lose myself in the gray wall i sit until my mind becomes as blank as the gray wall. i sit and i stare and i breathe. i sit and i stare. i breathe.

I have a great interest in victorian musical & cabaret performances and weimar artists so the references are there, to cabaret and also all that jazz and other films where, where there's a kind of (influential german playwright bertolt) brecht-ian approach, almost to the character standing outside of himself or, in this case, he's "self-séance-ing."

I'm not great at bedtime stories. bedtime stories are supposed to put the kid to sleep. my kid gets riled up and then my wife has to come in and go, 'all right! get out of the room.'
