I always like seeing people transforming themselves, in whatever way that might be, and a different accent is part of that.

It's very hard to be objective about something you're in, especially when you set it up against things that you experienced as a child.

I'm quite happy to leave it still feeling that way, leave it before it starts feeling like a job. ... I have such fond memories of watching 'Doctor Who' when I was a kid and growing up, that if I've left anybody anywhere with memories as fond, then I feel like I've done my job.

An accent has to do with the way your mouth works and the sounds that come out of your head, but somehow it informs everything about you.

I think doing different accents is part of the job of acting, really. It's something else that I quite enjoy the challenge of, to be honest.

I remember a conversation with my parents about who the people on the TV were, and learning they were actors and they acted out this story and just thinking that was the most fantastic notion, and that's what I want to do.
