Speaking of how his wife helps him prepare for his roles, Stephen told a press conference in 2020: "I'm dyslexic so I struggle. My missus reads the script and says whether or not I'm doing it.

"She's made some good choices."

The couple also appeared alongside each other the gritty BBC One prison drama, Time.

On the series, Stephen played prison guard Eric McNally, while Hannah played his character's wife Sonia McNally.

Speaking about getting the role, Hannah revealed to Radio X that she was embarrassed when her husband put her forward for the part of his on-screen wife.

But she said that she got the job as they had "quite good chemistry", before joking: "It would have been shocking if we didn't!"

Speaking in an online Q&A about Time, the actor said of his wife: “I watched Hannah back in the day at drama school and always thought she was brilliant.”
