'Paddington' villain Hugh Grant eats humble marmalade for a good cause
High Grant is a man of many talents. Acting, campaigning, and, errr, marmalade eating.
In a video posted on Twitter, the Paddington 2 villain performed a new version of the dog food advert from the movie;.
"If your birthday is a special birthday, why not celebrate in style with Buchanan’s special chunky cut marmalade?" says Grant in a distinctly villainous voice.

He then proceeds to scoop marmalade out of the jar using just his fingers and smear it all over his face. "How was that, darling? Was it good? Shall we go again? Bit messy?"
Uhhh, just a bit.

Happy birthday, Henry!
