		</div><p>Andrew Scott said he was “sworn to secrecy” over his role in the new series of Black Mirror – but he could not resist telling his mother.</p>
<p>The Irish actor, who played a priest in Phoebe Waller-Bridge’s hit BBC Three series Fleabag, stars in Smithereens, an episode in the fifth series of the Netflix dystopian anthology.</p>
<p>Scott, 42, said the show’s producers had ensured the production was “shrouded in mystery” until its release earlier this week.</p>
<p>He told the Graham Norton Show: <em>“I am relieved it is out. The whole thing was shrouded in mystery.</em></p>
<p><em>“No-one tells you what’s going on and then you’re sworn to secrecy. You can’t tell anyone, but I told my mum.”</em></p>
<p>Scott, who does not drive, said the Black Mirror crew had gone to extra lengths to film the car scenes.</p>
<p>He said: <em>“It’s so humiliating that I don’t drive, and I am playing a driver. They basically had to put the car on a skateboard and I had to act driving. It was so not cool.”</em></p>
<p>Scott’s turn in Fleabag saw him labelled “the hot priest” by viewers.</p>
<p>He said this new reputation as a sex symbol had “definitely changed things a little bit”.</p>
<p>He said: <em>“Weirdly, it’s actually the husbands and boyfriends that come up to me.</em></p>
<p><em>“I had a strange encounter the other day. I was in the park going over my lines and this little man was just standing staring at me.</em></p>
<p><em>“Eventually he said, ‘My wife really fancies you, can I have a selfie?’</em></p>
<p><em>“He had a mop in one hand and when we had taken the photo he just carried on staring while making the mop jiggle around.</em></p>
<p><em>“I wondered if the mop was his ‘wife’? It was really weird.”</em></p>
<p>The Graham Norton Show is on BBC One at 10.35pm on Friday.</p>
