Tom Hiddleston sat down at the SAG-AFTRA Foundation for an hour-long talking about The Night Manager and the TV and film industry this week.

Inevitably, though, he got persuaded to do a few impressions of his co-stars (he's notorious for being good at them).

Hiddleston gave a pretty solid Hugh Laurie (skip to 19:58) and also took on Thor co-star Idris Elba (1:11:11), joking about the never-ending Bond casting debate in Elba's deep London accent.

Tom also offered a simple guide to getting the difference between southern Irish and Northern Irish accents right (1:08:13).

2015 saw Hiddleston focus on passion projects High-Rise and I Saw the Light, while right now he is busy with blockbusters Kong: Skull Island and Thor: Ragnarok.
