"I've got plenty of houses for him, if I had his number I'd give him a ring.
"I know Beverley is one of the most sought after places in the north. We've got other people in the town in the same business, people like the actor Vincent Regan, who seem to love it."
Beverley is a desirable destination, having just been named in the top 100 places to live in the UK by The Sunday Times. The East Riding county capital came in at number 68.
The town already boasts Hollywood stars in actor Vincent Regan and actress Eleanor Tomlinson.
Regan is best-known for his roles in historical epics 300 and Troy.
He is opening a new theatre in Beverley called 'Ert', or the East Riding Theatre.
Up-and-coming actress Tomlinson, 20, appeared in Angus, Thongs and Perfect Snogging and stars in the new blockbuster Jack The Giant Killer.
She celebrated landing the plum role by nipping to the town's Tesco supermarket for a bottle of bubbly.

“Yawn. This time last year the rumour was that Gerard Butler was moving to the town. Someone's estate agency clearly isn't doing very well at the moment.”

“Great free advert for Quick and Clarke (WHO). London, New York and Beverley? lol right, doesn't this rag print any news worthy of a story, NO they don't, it's all about printing stories that tries to make the area look great to the rest of the UK. Come on HDM, you haven't printed a story about the floods for ages now, not like you is it. YAWN”

“I don't really care, if I saw him in the street I'd probably just walk right past him. I've ignored other actors I've seen in the street.”
