Daniel Radcliffe says stranger offered him $5 thinking he was a homeless person: 'Get yourself a coffee, mate'
Daniel Radcliffe rose to fame when he took on the role of Harry Potter and since then the actor has portrayed some prolific roles in Hollywood. Despite this, Radcliffe faced an unusual situation where a man took him for being homeless and offered him money. Appearing on 'The Graham Norton Show', Radcliffe recalled what had happened.
"I was on the street with this dog and my girlfriend was in the shop. It was very cold, I've got my hoodie and my fleece and then a big coat over that and the dog was really cold so I was like 'I'll kneel by you and stroke you and try and keep you warm'," he recalled, as reported by Yahoo.
He continued, "“I saw this guy look at me and smile. Then he walked past me, got about five steps away, reappeared with a five-dollar bill over my shoulder and went, ‘Get yourself a coffee mate.’” Radcliffe thought that one of the reasons why the man took him for being homeless could be the way he looked because of his beard.
“I have to shave more often,” he said. Alongside Radcliffe, guest stars Sharon Horgan, Alan Cummings, and Mariam Margolyes were also present. Margolyes was also seen Harry Potter for her role as Professor Sprout in the 'Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets'. Margolyes has always kept the viewers entertained with her personality.
During the interview, Margolyes decided to quiz Radcliffe and asked, "Do you have a foreskin." To this, Radcliffe replied, "No, I'm Jewish". However, Margolyes was not done and decided to turn to Norton for an answer on the same question. He decided to play along and stated, "loads of them. I collect them". Hearing this the audience broke into laughter.
Throughout the episode, Margolyes made sure that the viewers like what they were watching as she put forward her charming personality during the show.
