Bill Nighy: They have Love Actually parties now in America. Every Christmas the ladies in particular will open some wine and settle down to watch it all over again. Nothing could give me more pleasure than that. (edit) Bill Nighy: I speculate to be sociable, but it's a very big deal for me that any work I do should be well received. As for how people generally perceive me, I don't know. (edit) (on being sent back to England while he was living in Paris, at the request of his father)
