Bryan Cranston joined us to talk about playing his infamous character in Breaking Bad, Walter White.

The 60-year-old actor took on the role eight years ago and says he still gets people shouting "Heisenberg" to him in the street.

Bryan said that when they started filming Breaking Bad they couldn't foresee the success that it ultimately had. "We were just a little company, in the middle of the New Mexican Desert, shooting this interesting, but small story," he explained. "We had no idea it would become the hit it was."

Despite Bryan's lower expectations, Breaking Bad was phenomenally popular. It has won and received nominations for countless awards over the years, including numerous Emmys and Golden Globes.

Its success has even seen fans getting tattoos inspired by the series. When asked if he's seen any, Bryan says, "I just see a tattoo and say, 'why did you do that?'".

Although the award-winning actor finds it a bit strange to see his face tattooed on fans, he did admit that he has a tattoo of his own inspired by the TV series.

For those who have seen Breaking Bad, you will know that there is a scene when Walter throws a pizza on the roof of his house. It turns out that a lot of fans like to recreate this scene, but unfortunately the countless pizzas that have been left on the roof of this house has resulted in many animals attracted to the leftovers!

Anyone for pizza?
