I haven’t heard him doing anything like that… Though I think he’s currently filming ‘Henry IV’ so I guess that could be why? :/ All I’ve found is that he attended the Dickens family reunion lunch:
The Commander’s nephew, Harry Lloyd, the 28-year actor who recently played a young Denis Thatcher on screen, was also put off the author as a child. He, too, grew fond of him at university, writing a dissertation at Oxford on the relationship between text and illustration in his novels. Was that cheating a little, I ask. He laughs. “I don’t think the fact that my mum has some of his cutlery helped me with my essay,” he says.
From here :) (and he’s sadly not in the article’s photo) D:
