We had a blast speaking to Marc Wootton on the Nativity 2 red carpet, and it was just as fun meeting him for a second time to delve further into the character of Mr Poppy – the frustrating but lovable man-child who has somehow managed to secure the role of teaching assistant in with the class from St Bernadette’s. We asked Marc what it was about his comic creation that infuriated adults so much, but which makes the children both on and off screen view him a hero. Mr Poppy returns to the screens in Nativity 2 this Friday.
