Michael Fassbender has admitted he hates when people use their phone at the dinner table.
Although playing Apple boss Steve Jobs on the big screen, the X-Men actor revealed he asks friends to turn off their phones when they go out with him.
“Sometimes, when I’m in a restaurant by myself I will look at my phone, but usually I turn it off,” he said.

“I ask my friends to turn off their phones when we’re eating together. I just think it’s important for people to be able to communicate directly.
“Usually you’re sitting down at a table and you’re constantly seeing people texting, and the phones are ringing or going bing-bing from messages coming in,” he told Penthouse magazine.
“We should still enjoy being able to look at each other and talk rather than be at the mercy of our phones every minute of the day.”
Note to anyone wanting to go for dinner with the Kerryman – put your phone away!
