Tom Cruise has told how he loves spending time in Britain because 'everyone is pleasant' and no one tries to 'crowd' him.
The actor, 60, has been in the UK in recent months while filming scenes for Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One.
The film star said he enjoys relaxing here and has found everyone he has met to be 'well-mannered'.
Speaking to Derbyshire Live, he said: 'Everyone is pleasant and will give you a nod or say hello without crowding you. I was brought up to be well-mannered and you really get that in Britain.
'I also like the fact that I am walking the same streets as Shakespeare, Dickens, and even The Beatles. That is really cool.'
Tom added: 'I guess I am an Anglophile. I spend a lot of time in Britain and that's not just for work reasons. I just love being here.'
The actor spent a lot of time in the UK over the summer and was spotted attending the Queen's jubilee, a ladies' final in Wimbledon and concerts by The Rolling Stones and Adele in Hyde Park.
Tom also celebrated his 60th birthday in the Cotswolds and was reportedly joined by stars including David Beckham, James Corden and Gordon Ramsay.
He was also in London for the British premiere of Top Gun: Maverick in May where he mingled with Prince William and Kate Middleton.
In recent weeks, Tom has been seen shooting daredevil stunts in the Lake District, including showing off his skills as a parachutist as he swooped to the ground while performing sky acrobatics in scenes filmed earlier this month.
The actor has been taking flying lessons at Teeside Airport in preparation for the exhilarating scenes in the new film.
Tom is known for being friendly on set and the actor said that he tries not to 'set himself apart' from other people.
Earlier this month, a group of local walkers in the Lake District got a surprise when they stumbled upon Tom filming Mission: Impossible.
Adam Wheeler and Lucy Hinch from County Durham were going for a walk with their Siberian Husky Blitz when they spotted the Hollywood star filming his latest blockbuster.
The actor, who was being helicoptered to High Cragg before soaring down to Buttermere below, happily posed for a photograph with the pair, before thanking them and leaping off again.
Speaking to The Northern Echo, Adam said several people wanted photos with Tom who happily obliged.
He said: 'He was nice and polite and really humble. Tom Cruise apologised for the noise of the helicopters and asked if we were alright.
'He was making sure everybody who wanted to, got their photos with him. We were the last ones to get his picture and then he just paraglided off the mountain back to his camp next to Buttermere.
'It was a real pleasure meeting one of the most famous Hollywood celebrity actors out there – one of the richest as well. It was not what we expected while out walking on the fells.'
The couple added they watched some of the filming taking place, with Tom performing all his own stunts as he paraglided down the fell several times.
The film will star Tom alongside Hayley Atwell, Hot Fuzz star Simon Pegg, Swedish actress Rebecca Ferguson and The Princess Bride star Cary Elwes.
