Screenrush.co.uk have posted a short interview clip featuring Richard E. Grant & Emilia Fox in The Man Who Married Himself which can be viewed by clicking the link below.

The film is directed by director Garrick Hamm and is based on Charlie Fish’s short story of the same title. In the film, Richard plays an interesting character called Oliver, who decides to marry himself after unsuccessfully dating a number of women without finding his perfect partner. It’s kind of a mid-life crisis thing!

The cast also includes Warren Clarke (Bishop Zatarga), Emilia Fox (Sarah) and Celia Imrie (Oliver’s mum).

Richard recently appeared on season 4, episode 1 of Would I Lie To You? (BBC1) on July 23 – a comedy panel show about bluffing and lies. You can check out the videos below.

The first in a series of three programmes asking what we get from reading, and writing, diaries.

Writing a diary can be dangerous. As can reading one. Richard E Grant, a diarist since childhood, uncovers the power of the diary. He considers the diaries of Joe Orton, Kenneth Williams, Erwin James, John Diamond and Rosemary Ackland and asks whether a diary should, or could, ever be totally honest, wholly accurate and absolutely true.

Richard talks with Joe Orton’s sister, Leonie, about her long-held belief that Orton’s confessional diary was actually responsible for him losing his life. Richard also meets prison diarist Erwin James to understand the power of writing for a serving offender. Joss Ackland tells Richard about editing his wife’s 50-plus years of diary writing. And Richard meets with Sheila Hancock to talk about Kenneth Williams’ diary, in which she appeared many times. Williams had a charming public face. But in the diaries he could be savage. He even wrote that he’d never again speak to Sheila Hancock.

Clive James invites Richard E. Grant into his library for a chat with the Withnail & I star about his childhood, films, acting, actors and his directorial debut with the autobiographical film Wah-Wah.

Clive James has interviewed hundreds of prominent cultural figures on mainstream television and always wondered if the results might not have been more relaxed, natural and fruitful if he could have worked from home. Now he is working from home. In the library of his London apartment, he talks with writers, poets, directors, actors, dancers: anyone that he knows well enough to ask in for a conversation, a drink and a Chinese takeaway dinner.

“This was one of my dream scenarios for my retirement,” says the proud presenter, “and here it is, coming true.” Set in the same library into which Australia’s best-known critic has been gradually disappearing for years behind his piles of books, Clive conducts vital dialogues about the arts, with the people who know most about them.

In this episode, Clive talks to actor Richard E. Grant about his eventful life and career. From the uncertainties of his Swaziland upbringing, where the breakdown of his parents’ marriage made for an uncomfortable time (as portrayed in his recent autobiographical film debut, Wah-Wah, which he also discusses) to the cult hit Withnail and I, via Hollywood, writing, Bruce Willis and Barbara Streisand, Richard E. Grant makes for scintillating viewing.
