This is my trademark: I rip my T-shirt. I’m into the whole showing-a-bit-of-chest-hair thing.

I grew up in a middle class English family just outside London. I wasn't surrounded by that speedy city lifestyle, it was a little mellower.

When I need to think of, like, a peaceful scene or something, I think of my back garden in summertime. And whenever I hear the lawnmower next door, I always think it's really peaceful.

I like the glamorous indie rock look, like The Libertines. But you know, without the heroin needle sticking out of my arm.

'Villain' is such a harsh word.

You have to do things that excite you; you have to have a passion for your work. Otherwise you're just a face on the screen.

I'm a big fan of London in the summertime. English people are dependent on weather to change our attitudes, and, provided it's a decent summer, everyone's spirits are uplifted and the whole place is in bloom. It's a magical transformation. London in the summer, going to see bands play outside, watching football.
