All my early school reports from the age of 5 were 'Daniel must learn not to distract others.'

I'm shocked at being recognized. You go to places you don't think you would be and still, you are. Taxi drivers often recognise me... but I haven't got a free ride yet.

I don't see money or a particular status as an actor as a goal, but I want to do the best work I can in as interesting a range of roles as I can.

I don't think there's ever a right time to have kids. I'm actually pretty glad it's happened quite young.

Family is hugely important to me. Having kids is the best possible way to shake off any kind of darkness that might accompany a role that you're playing.

Coming back to theatre is something I'm keen to do for the rest of my life. It recharges my batteries, so to speak.

I don't think many people get to play big emotions in life.
