From The Wire to Luther and now big-budget films, we know Idris Elba from his macho on-screen characters. But what’s he like in real life? We ask him to answer Woman’s 10 burning questions.
1 What do you always stock in your fridge?

2 Do you have an embarrassing habit?
As I get older it’s more good habits that I am trying to focus on rather than embarrassing ones. Looking after my skin, eating right, and most importantly giving up beer!
3 Have you ever broken the law?
