Anthony Hopkins uses Google Maps to revisit his childhood street in Wales

Hollywood actor Sir Anthony Hopkins has revealed he uses Google Maps to revisit the streets where he grew up in Wales.

Speaking to ITV News, the 88-year-old said he thinks about Wales “all the time”. Sir Anthony, who is from Port Talbot, has lived in the US for more than 50 years.

He said he uses Google Maps’ Street View feature to revisit the streets he grew up on. “I'm always going back there. I would say every year, most days, I'm back there.

“Somehow the memories are very powerful,” said Sir Anthony, who explained that he has not been back to visit his hometown in two years.
