Brian Blessed has already sung me his rendition of Nessun Dorma, talked enthusiastically about dinosaurs and space travel and tried to convince me that yetis exist, all on full volume and so excitedly he’s tripping over his words.
There's a distinct sense that I'm talking with an overimaginative child on a sugar rush if it weren’t for that trademark booming, operatic voice.
In fact the larger-than-life actor has just turned 86, but he doesn't mind if I find that hard to believe… because so does he.
