The Prince of Persia's European Tour reaches Moscow! And Jake Gyllenhaal's taste for English tea and buses (& being interviewed in high places)

The Prince of Persia team is in Moscow! Continuing Jake Gyllenhaal's new trend of being interviewed in high up places (see below), Jake, Gemma Arterton, Jordan Mechner, Jerry Bruckheimer and Mike Newell brave the Moscow rooftops for a photocall with a great backdrop. Admittedly, it's not easy to appreciate the architectural and historical wonders of Moscow, when you have Jake Gyllenhaal and The Jacket in front of you. Having had some amazing adventures in Moscow and Russia over the years, I hope Jake and the others get to see a little of the city (overground and underground), and enjoy a taster of the fiery liquid.








Vodka will make a pleasant change, no doubt, because all the evidence suggests that Jake has been overdoing it on the tea while in London. So much so, he even tells Terri at Extra that his ideal woman must like tea. Obviously, I'm English, I can't get enough of the stuff... Particularly when it isn't tea. But it is rather nice to see Jake being interviewed while at High Tea - I can see clotted cream and a bunch of dainties. Full version here.



Jake also revealed how much he wants to play Joe Namath - when the project is perfectly ready - and how he trained for Prince of Persia. Somehing about riding round stars' homes in LA on a camel and eating twigs.


Talking of tea, Jake told the Sun: 'I love being in London and can walk around pretty free. I love going to Hyde Park, travelling around on a double decker bus and having a nice cup of tea! People are very welcoming in London. It's one of my favourite cities in the world.' Sitting next to Jake Gyllenhaal on a double decker, something every Brit should experience at least once.


Jake looked down on London Town from up high for two interviews. In the first, for ET, Jake proved that his flirting skills are finely honed and not adversely affected by jetlag. You can also see Jake taunt his fanbase.



Jake was also emotional during a rooftop interview for 10 Daily. One minute Jake's talking about his passion for Snickers and, in the next, the ordeal of being hot and sexy gets to him and he takes a moment. As always, whenever Jake is interviewed, I find myself laughing out loud and today, we have had so many, it's been a very good day. And no end in sight as the PoP tour continues.



There are more videos today from London! And here are some of them.





We also have quite a lot more from the London press conference.



Updated to add this great video in which Sir Ben Kingsley talks about Jake's greatest gift as an actor.



I still have much of my own stuff to upload and so I'll do that just the moment that I get the chance in this busy PoP schedule. I will also be emailing the three winners of the little competition later this evening! Many thanks to IHJ for keeping on top of the vids and for the wonderful pictures from the Prince of Persia's European Tour!
