It can be very difficult to trace your birth parents.

No matter how big a name you are, how many big series you've been in or how good looking you are, in the end, all actors are secondary to the writer.

Twelve years on sets watching directors, I've taken a bit from everybody and rejected a lot.

The money is better in films and television. But in terms of acting, theatre is more rewarding.

I think film and television are really a director's medium, whereas theatre is the actor's medium.

I think theatre is by far the most rewarding experience for an actor. You get 4 weeks to rehearse your character and then at 7:30 pm you start acting and nobody stops you, acting with your entire soul.

On The Others, very atmospheric and probably mysterious is how I would say it felt to be on the set. It felt just a little uneasy, the atmosphere that we were trying to capture.
