Irons inspired to change world

Actor Jeremy Irons says it is "down to all of us" to change the world, after being inspired by his latest film character.

At the world premiere of the film Eragon in London, he said that he was drawn to his character, Brom.

"I like the fact that he is quite a hidden man and that he is a man who has a past, a man who has heart, and a man who is waiting for something to happen to make the world better, which is what we all are," he said.
