Sarah Montague speaks to actor and activist Michael Sheen.

In a special edition of HARDtalk, Sarah Montague speaks to actor and activist Michael Sheen. Known around the world for his film, television and theatre work, Michael Sheen made his name for his uncanny ability to portray other people, such as Tony Blair, Brian Clough and David Frost.

How does he straddle such contrasting worlds?
