Paddy and Nick met as teenagers and developed a love of music. Here they remember how they met, what they first thought of each other and how their lives would have been so different without their friendship
His Story Paddy Considine, 39, actor and director
I'd been hanging out with kids at the rougher end of Winshill [in Burton upon Trent] until I met Nick at 15. He was from the other end of town, the one I considered to be full of snobs. Spending time with my mates on the estate meant getting up to mischief, so there was an appeal in hanging out with Nick and Richard, who'd introduced us. Richard's dad had recording equipment in his garage, so Nick and I would be there for hours recording adverts and dubbing them and recording our own little radio shows. We bonded over Guns N' Roses and created fake comedy/heavy metal bands inspired by Spinal Tap.
