London, Sep 4 : Russell Crowe might be a serious and hard-hitting actor, but it seems that he too can become a child at times.

The 'A Beautiful Mind' actor recently admitted that he has a very strange secret passion - Bananas In Pyjamas!

Crowe owned up to being hooked on the quirky children's TV show after regularly watching it with his two young sons.

"It's much more thrilling that anything else that goes on in my life," The Sun quoted him, as saying.

Meanwhile, the 'Gladiator' star is not the only celebrity who is a big telly fan.

Singer Gwen Stefani recently revealed that she religiously follows BBC1 classic show 'The Antiques Roadshow', while Hollywood stars Brad Pitt and Pierce Brosnan are addicted to British soaps EastEnders and Emmerdale respectively.

"I really enjoy Emmerdale - it's the scenery. I wouldn't mind a role in a soap, it all looks such good fun," Brosnan said.
