After drama school I did a seven-month tour of Europe performing in 'Romeo and Juliet.' I played Romeo.

Acting is all about likability.

As a teenager I was crazy about David Bowie. He was a huge inspiration for me. I dressed a little bit crazily in school and dyed my hair every colour under the sun.

I was at the birth of my two girls.

Something I don't like seeing in other people is naked ambition, when somebody is really pushing hard to get to where they want to be. That's the way I look at that word - like you must be stepping on someone to get there. And I've never been comfortable with that.

There are a lot of people who go through a lot of tough things, and it doesn't stop them from wanting to be a better parent.

It's important to me that everyone is treated with respect.
