Paul's wife's TV habits keep him up late.

Sir Paul McCartney and his wife Nancy Shevell have a difference in opinion when it comes to the pre-bedtime rituals. The 81-year-old Beatles legend admitted to his official website that he likes to settle down with a good book before going to sleep, while Nancy, 63, prefers to watch a series on TV.

Paul revealed that he finds the shows that Nancy watches a little too exciting for him and it keeps him up all night. He says, “I get ready for bed and the last thing I do is read. Nancy will often look at a series at that time, but I think it’s not conducive to sleep because some of the things she’ll watch are a little too exciting and the plot will keep you up all night! So I try to read biographies, which can be a little bit dry. After a few pages you start you yawn, the page goes fuzzy, so it’s light off and straight to sleep. I like that!”

Sir Paul and Nancy, who tied the knot in 2011, enjoy catching up on new movies and TV shows while travelling. Paul is currently into Breaking Bad prequel series'Better Call Saul – starring Bob Odenkirk. He says, “I watch movies. So when I travel from London to New York, its normally a seven-hour journey so I end up watching about three movies, and in the middle of it all I try and have a meal. I just go to New Releases and unfortunately they’re not new – I’ve seen most of them! They don’t update them quick enough for me. I scan through and think “Ah, I’ve been meaning to see that”. On car journeys, I watch stuff on my iPad which can be films or series. I’m currently on Better Call Saul and it’s a good one.”

The legendary artist admitted he was looking for a new hobby and was considering taking up knitting as a way to release tension in the midst of his busy life. He said, “I don’t knit, I imagine that would be quite cool, actually. Tom Daley knits and so does Michelle Obama, and I get why they do it; it must be a great release of tension.”
