    Once, Alan walked around the set of A Knight's Tale wearing a cowboy hat with the confidence of a true Texan. Despite his bold fashion choice, he struck up a close friendship with British actor Mark Addy. Both Alan and Mark regale Nathan with fond memories of working with Heath Ledger and exploring the Czech Republic. Mark also takes us through his storied career… from The Full Monty to his memorable turn as Robert Baratheon in Game of Thrones.
