'Ted Lasso' star Jeremy Swift for MyWorstMoment: 'The two actors who were on stage were looking a bit dumbfounded at our arrival. So I whispered to the other actress: 'Chase me!' I don't know if that made it worse. It probably made it worse, really.'

“I know some of the other actors had a trajectory planned out at the beginning,” said Swift, “but I didn’t. I didn’t really know where he was going. I’m not sure the writers did, either. The first season was very much about divorce for two of the central characters, and they needed a contrast. So they went with a relatively harmonious family for Higgins.” Summing up his experience on the show over the last three seasons: “I just have to pinch myself that I’m in it.
“And in one scene, the title character goes to an asylum. I can’t remember how, it’s a very strange script. And I played a nude asylum person. I had not been nude on stage before and it’s not something I would inflict on the public ever again.“Basically the inmates of the asylum would come out from beneath the stage. There was a two-hander scene going on before our entrance and it was very philosophical. But when you’re underneath the stage, you can’t really hear properly.
“All this is happening while Peer Gynt is talking to the head of the asylum, who turns out to be mad himself — but you don’t know that during that scene — so they just carried on until the rest of this very chaotic company of actors made their entrance from underneath the stage.Jeremy Swift has an extensive career in the theater, which is where all his cringiest moments have transpired.
