Brad Pitt's favourite TV show

During a recent interview with Joe to promote his upcoming film Bullet Train, Pitt and his co-stars Brian Tyree Henry and Aaron Taylor-Johnson, were asked what their favourite show is when they just 'want to watch stuff explode.'

Tyree Henry revealed his favourite is The Great British Bake Off, known as The Great British Baking Show in the US. This sparked Pitt to reply, as reported by The Independent:

If we’re going that route, I’m going The Great Pottery Throw Down.

He added:

Seen every season.

He then described the show’s host Keith Brymer Jones, who is often brought to tears by contestants’ work, as 'beautiful':

He’s so kind. He’s so supportive. I tear up.

Pitt's favourite films

Brad Pitt has previously revealed his favourite films include Dog Day Afternoon, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest,Dr. Strangelove, and Saturday Night Fever. He told NPR:

I loved Saturday Night Fever when I was a kid. I couldn't believe people talked that way. It was just a whole new culture I didn't understand. I snuck into it. It was an R-rated film. So it holds a special place. The films on my playlist today would be Dog Day Afternoon. [One Flew Over the] Cuckoo's Nest was a huge one with me. I would say [Dr.] Strangelove always cracks me up.

Bullet Train will be released in cinemas on 5 August.
