Ray Winstone is one the country's best loved actors, and he's here to tell us about taking the role of the legendary Detective Inspector Jack Regan in his new film, 'The Sweeney'.

He's mostly known for his "tough guy" roles, beginning with that of Carlin in the 1979 film Scum and as Will Scarlet in the cult television adventure series Robin of Sherwood.

His film resume includes Cold Mountain, Nil By Mouth, King Arthur, The Proposition, The Departed, Beowulf, Indiana Jones and The Kingdom of the Crystal Skull and Edge of Darkness.

Ray's taken on the role of Jack Regan in a remake of The Sweeney coming to our screens soon. He played an unnamed youth in the original hit TV series back in the seventies with John Thaw (Regan) and Dennis Waterman (George Carter), and that's what he's here to tell us all about this morning!
