“The first time I ever met Bryan Cranston [was] a huge moment in my life,” James said. “My wife and I had gone to — she was my girlfriend at the time — and we’d gone to Los Angeles for the first time in our lives, and we’d spent the entire morning watching season 2 of Breaking Bad.”

“We then decide to leave our room and go for lunch. I go for lunch and who walks in the restaurant but Bryan Cranston. To this day, I have never been as starstruck as I was in that moment. I went over, I said ‘Bryan…’” he added.

Bryan then cut in and said, “And then I immediately say, ‘Could I have some more coffee, please?’”

“That is completely true,” James replied. “I said, ‘Bryan, you don’t know me, I’m an actor in the United Kingdom and I was watching the show this morning. Your performance is incredible.’ And he said ‘Thank you, can I get a Diet Coke with no ice?’”
