Goldie at Home

It's not every day I get to meet someone who was in one of my favourite films of all time, but today on commission for The Sun I went to the home of the man whose character (he basically played himself) was described in the movie Snatch as a "bad boy yardie". That's right- I was off to do a portrait session with legendary gold-toothed DJ, Goldie. Not the least intimidating person on earth.

It turned out to be a brief but interesting shoot, and Goldie turned out to be a lovely and very intelligent chap. I had a cup of tea, met his dogs, and for some reason told him he needed to get his couch reupholstered!
