Mad man Hamm talks waltzing with Young Doctor Radcliffe

IT’S the end of another long day on set and Jon Hamm sounds a little croaky. But while the hours might be proving arduous for the actor, his schedule’s nothing compared to that of his co-star Daniel Radcliffe.

“Dan’s on the West End doing eight shows a week, so that’s a far bigger challenge than it is for me,” says 42-year-old Hamm, who’s dressed in light brown trousers, checked shirt and blue baseball jacket, a cap perched atop that handsome face.

Following a successful first series, Radcliffe and Mad Men star Hamm are reuniting for a four-part follow-up to A Young Doctor’s Notebook, which was based on the experiences of the writer Mikhail Bulgakov as a newly-qualified medic during the Russian Revolution.
