When I finished my A-levels, I assumed I'd be able to get work as an actor. But I couldn't. I didn't get an audition. Nothing. So I thought I'd better train and then the parts would come.

I'm really hopeless with technology - I don't even have a computer.

My intuition comes up with better stuff than my head, I think.

I am a typical Libran. I tend to see two sides of everything.

Filmmakers tell stories to explore human nature, which is always a flawed thing.

As an actor you have total rights to privacy and mystery, whatever your sexuality, whatever you do. I don't see why that has to be something you discuss openly because you do something in the public eye. I have no understanding of why we turn actors into celebrities.

My favorite Bond films are the really early ones, the first ones in fact, like 'Dr. No' and 'From Russia with Love.'
