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.

I think gardens are fantastic, and I'd love to draw and design and stuff like that. I love just planting flowers during the summer. There's something very humble about it, and natural and beautiful.

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

I don't come from a famous family and don't have this detachment from everyday people and everyday life. I'm just doing my job and the attention that comes with it is part of the territory.

I've always connected with music. Life's not always what you see; it's what going on in your head. Music is what comes out of your subconscious.

I'm all for being in love and whenever I like someone, I end up pretty much completely smitten.

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.
