I look ridiculous in a three-piece suit - I'm too fat.

People seem to think I'm Satan.

I'm only stopped by people in uniform, whether it's customs people, janitors, or the FBI - they all watch The Wire. Sadly, beautiful, glamorous women don't know anything about it.

No, I don't think 'The Wire' screwed up my career at all. It's the only reason people have heard of me. It's only been a huge, huge, very fortunate bonus.

I've always wanted to play more comic parts.

I don't know why British actors are getting big parts in American TV shows. Maybe it's because we're cheap.

If you do an American TV series, before the audition you sign away the next five years of your life.
