Luckily my parents were not against my ambition, they've always been very supportive. But they were adamant that I went to university first.

I went out for a film where they wanted seven brothers and one sister, so I was there for half a day while they were waiting for 'Archie' to read for a boy I've had drivers come to pick me up in England looking for a blond, blue-eyed Scottish boy.

As soon as I moved to New York, I experienced Hurricane Irene and then Hurricane Sandy hit me in quite a big way. I had 12 days without any electricity or any water. The thing that I realized the most from it was that we've become so dependent on technology. There's so much accessibility to information that suddenly when everything is cut off, you're completely lost, and you start asking deeper and more profound questions - how short life is, and how grateful we should be for things.

I loved eating and I did put on weight. I never actually felt fat until I started going for castings, for auditions.

And I'd love to direct. One day. I'm learning a lot on the set of The Good Wife.

The predictable thing about 'The Good Wife' is how unpredictable 'The Good Wife' is.

I knew what I wanted to do for my entire life, from nursery to university. I've always been geared towards wanting to act. I've stuck with it, dedicated time to it.
