Aidan Gillen is best known for his role as Petyr "Littlefinger" Baelish in Game Of Thrones, Tommy Carcetti in The Wire (both HBO series), CIA operative Bill Wilson in The Dark Knight Rises, Stuart Alan Jones in the Channel 4 series Queer As Folk and John Boy in the RTE Television series Love/Hate.
I met Aidan at a Q&A with ex Teardrop Explodes singer Julian Cope and he kindly agreed to have a chat on my podcast. However when we met he reminded me I had met him briefly before many years ago. Indeed he had to leave his own house for a few hours partly because of me. We had a long chat about film in general and some of his films including Treacle Jr, Stills and Some Mother's Son.
This one is a bit of an epic. I could have made it a two parter but y'know there hasn't been one in awhile so you can do that yourself if you like. Enjoy an extra big helping of Podarooney!
