Judd Nelson - aka Breakfast Club icon and '80s heartthrob

By Genevieve Hassan

Judd joins Genevieve to reminisce about making John Hughes' classic 1985 film The Breakfast Club.

Hear how he went undercover at a high school with Emilio Estevez for his role and the story behind how his now-iconic fist pump made its way on the screen.

Judd also explains why he doesn't like being labelled part of the Brat Pack and gives a searingly honest critique of his career and the acting industry.

Plus he talks about golf, the benefits of ceiling fans - and his latest film, coming-of-age-drama Iceland Is Best.
