David, 64, lives in a three-bedroomed

26、flat right at the top of the Byward Tower, one of the gatehouses. From our bedroom we have a marvellous view of Tower Bridge and the Thames, says David. The Tower of London is famous for its ravens, the large black birds which have lived there for over three centuries. David was immediately fascinat

27、ed by the birds and when he was offered the post of Raven Master eight years ago he had no hesitation in accepting it. The birds have now become my life and Im always aware of the fact that I am maintaining a tradition. The legend says that if the ravens leave the Tower, England will fall to enemies

28、, and its my job to make sure this doesnt happen! David devotes about four hours a day to the care of the ravens. He has grown to love them and the fact that he lives right next to them is ideal.

During the making of the film Harrelson kept complaining that the fight scenes werent very convincing, so one day he suggested that he and Bandera

31、s should have a fight for real. The Spanish actor wasnt keen on the idea at first, but he was eventually persuaded by his co-star to put on his gloves and climb into the boxing ring. However, when he realized how seriously his opponent was taking it all, he began to regret his decision to fight. And

32、 then in the third round, Harrelson hit Banderas so hard in the face that he actually broke his nose. His wife, actress Melanie Griffith, was furious that he had been playing silly macho games. She was right, confesses Banderas, and I was a fool to take a risk like that in the middle of a movie. He

33、was reminded of the time he broke his leg during a football match in his native Malaga. He had always dreamed of becoming a soccer star, of performing in front of a big crowd, but doctors told him his playing days were probably over. Thats when I decided to take up acting; I saw it as another way of

34、 performing, and achieving recognition. What happened to me on that football pitch was, you might say, my first lucky break.
