Hungary's most famous fan of Hugh Grant has taken his enthusiasm for the actor to new heights.

A video clip available on the internet at http://dl.index.hu/trailer/2.wmv starts with Grant in the movie Love Actually, in the role of the prime minister peering out of the window in his room at 10, Downing Street.

But the man who then turns to face the camera is Hungary's Prime

Minister Ferenc Gyurcsany, who goes on to dance to a pop song around his study.
"The scene even surprised us who meet the prime minister daily and obviously know him in a way most people don't," wrote Government Spokesman Andras Batiz on his http://batiz.fw.hu/ website.

Gyurcsany said in his blog (internet diary) on the left-wing youth Web site http://blog.amoba.hu the video had been made as part of a wedding gift to Batiz last year.

"It has been a habit for quite a few years with my friends that we watch a Hugh Grant movie on New Year's Eve, more precisely at dawn on New Year's Day, either Notting Hill or Love Actually," Gyurcsany added.
