Eileen Atkins talks 'ridiculous' reaction to telling Jack Nicholson his flies were undone

Eileen Atkins, 87, recalled the reaction she got from the cast and crew of 90s film Wolf, after she candidly told fellow actor Jack Nicholson, 84, his flies were undone. The Doc Martin star admitted she wasn’t embarrassed to let him know, but everyone else around them was shocked with her blatancy.

In a new interview, the actress remembered meeting The Shining legend for the first time.

“When I worked on [1994 thriller] Wolf, Jack Nicholson came onto the set preceded by five people looking after him,” she said.

“It was impossible to get to know him.

“We’d barely been introduced and were about to do a shot when I noticed his flies were undone.

“I mix into the crowd much more easily!”

She added: “Although when I’m stopped it’s nearly always for Doc Martin, which is irritating.”

She admitted she prefers being recognised as a theatre actress rather than for her work on-screen, explaining sheepishly it’s “rather snobby” of her to do so.

“In America, I’m stopped in the street because I’m a theatre actress,” she told Radio Times.
