Warwick Davis once had dreams of becoming a racing car driver.
The star really wanted to follow in his father's footsteps and rally when he was a youngster, but his dreams were dashed when he stepped into the world of acting, because the sport is "too dangerous" for an actor.
He has made up for it partly though, by becoming obsessed with racing car set Scalextric.
Speaking to the Metro newspaper he explained: "I really like playing Scalextric. My dad used to rally minis when he was younger and I must have inherited that gene.
"I always wanted to race cars but with my career it's too dangerous and I'm not allowed.
"I can't get in a Scalextric car, they're just a bit too small, but it's a hobby I enjoy with my children."
Warwick also spoke about his Christmas memories, noting he wouldn't get much sleep on Christmas Eve because he was too scared thinking about a strange man coming into the house to deliver gifts.
"I've still got vivid memories of how exciting it was but, at the same time, it was also scary that this guy was going to come to your house and bring presents while you were asleep.
"I don't think I ever slept beyond about 5am."
