BBC Life On Mars star Philip Glenister appeared on ITV daytime show This Morning on Monday, May 22, to speak about his latest acting job Steeltown Murders, which is set in Port Talbot. And during his interview he revealed the sweet way he managed to pull off such a brilliant Welsh accent - one which had viewers praising the English actor.
After talking about the plot of the show - read more on that here and the true story behind it here - Philip was praised by This Morning presenters Alison Hammond and Dermot O'Leary for his Welsh accent after the 60-year-old from Harrow - who is half Welsh - explained how lovely it was to be working in Wales.
He said: "It's the first time, although I'm half Welsh, my mother's Welsh, that I've worked in Wales with a Welsh crew and cast. It was fabulous."
