Hoskins uses toilet to decide roles

English actor Bob Hoskins has revealed he conducts a simple test to help him decide what film to star in - he brings the scripts to the bathroom.

The star, who picked up a Lifetime Achievement Award at the British Independent Film Awards in London on Tuesday said: "I take it to the loo. If I've suddenly got a cold bum, I think, 'hello, this must be a good script'.

"So it gets the cold bum test - that's the only way."
