“He just fancied it," said Berry of the event at a swanky West End private member's club. "He was downstairs and I said come up. Free booze will entice anyone, whether they have a million pounds in the bank or not.”

Hamm, who is due to appear in the Christmas special of Charlie Brooker's dystopian satire Black Mirror on Channel 4 this year, is apparently a big big fan of British comedy in general and a good pal of Berry’s. “He knows everyone’s work and quotes it,” says Berry.
