Stephen Graham is a phenomenal actor with a multitude of impressive credits to his name.

With accolades under his belt including a Screen Actor's Guild Award and numerous BAFTA nominations, he'd be forgiven for living the high life of a successful television and film star, but it seems that the Lancashire-born actor prefers to keep his feet on the ground.

Stephen, who has appeared in critically acclaimed titles such as Boardwalk Empire (for which he won his SAGA), The Irishman, Line of Duty, Boiling Point, and many more, lives with his wife, Hannah, also an actor, and their two children in the Leicestershire village of Ibstock.

Although they previously lived in the capital, Stephen and his family moved to the humble town in the East Midlands area and the film star has spoken admirably about the village in the past.

According to Staffordshire Live, the This Is England actor described himself as "part of the furniture" of Ibstock and loves the community spirit.

What's more, the feeling is mutual as far as the locals are concerned. Many told the publication how much they adore the famous actor being a part of their town.

One person said: "I live in the area. I've met him; many people I know see him shopping, etc. All good words, a lovely man, lovely family. Never heard a bad word about him. Just puzzled why he lives in Ibstock."
