I'm a huge fan of Eighties music.

I was never very happy at school.

I haven't done as many films as I would have liked.

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

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.

It's nice to get your glad rags on for awards like the Baftas, but it doesn't happen all the time.

It's great when somebody is able to communicate an actual shot sequence to you and you know the world you're inhabiting with that. It's literally a haunting tune.
