Stephen Graham still finds his wife Hannah Walters "dead saucy".
The 'Adolescence' actor - who met his partner when they were trainee actors at the Rose Bruford College of Theatre and Performance in Kent, UK - got married to Hannah, 48, in June 2008 and their love for each other is still going strong 17 years later.
Stephen, 51, gushed to GQ magazine: "She's me best mate for one, she's funny as f***. I find her dead saucy.
"She's amazing. She's the light of my life. Do you know what I mean? We're a great little partnership. It really works."
The couple, who have a daughter called Grace, 20, and a son named Alfie, 18, together, founded their production company Matriarch Productions in 2020, and its goal is to provide a "much-needed platform for underrepresented voices and stories in the UK".
And their firm was behind the hugely successful Netflix psychological crime drama series, 'Adolescence', which Hannah served as an executive producer on.
It tells the story of how 13-year-old Jamie Miller (Owen Cooper) is arrested for the murder of his school classmate Katie Leonard (Emilia Holliday).
The show - which was inspired by the UK's knife crime epidemic, as well as the impact of social media radicalisation - sparked a global conversation about toxic masculinity, and Stephen is glad it did.
He explained: "I hoped it would create conversation, the amount of stuff me and Hannah are getting sent, and the amount of people I'm seeing on the streets who were saying that has happened between them and their children, is huge.
"To me, that's objective complete. We've done our bit. Now you go and crack on."
Stephen recently revealed 'Adolescence' - topped Netflix's viewing charts in 93 countries across the world - could return with a totally different story at the heart of the plot.
Speaking to Variety, Stephen said: "It still is a possibility... If we were to go again, would I like it to again? With a different story completely? Yes."
The 'Line of Duty' actor admits that he and co-writer Jack Thorne were keen to avoid telling the story from the perspective of Katie's family as it would have been the "conventional" route to take.
Stephen explained: "If we were a conventional drama, you would look at it from Katie's perspective, and we'd see the aftermath of Katie's family.
"But I felt like we'd have seen that. We've seen that many a time. We haven't really seen this side."
