I enjoy doing everything, comedy and drama. I just look for the characters really and what they offer.

The only way to be an actor is to find ways to work as an actor, even if that means doing a one-man show by a river.

I have always been very fortunate in my working life in terms of the, I say that like I've not been fortunate at all in my private life.

I wanted to be an actor ever since I got on stage for the first time, aged 13. Before that, I thought I might follow in the medical footsteps of my parents: my father was a doctor, my mother a pharmacist.

I was the classic middle child in some ways, the one who could have been a priest in an alternate universe.

There's always something ridiculous happening on the set, especially when people get tired because of the long days.

A lot of people ask me about my father's passing when I was young, which I'm never comfortable with. I invariably move around that subject.
