I do get stopped a bit now and then, but I can go to the supermarket and on the Tube without being noticed. It's usually me that gets starstruck, especially by TV stars.

I think all actors have a similar deal. You want some people who understand. Although it looks great - and is great - there are also shoddy moments when you feel really rotten, and when it's going well, you're not allowed to complain.

I walk around talking to myself in accents. Usually people look at me like I'm a complete fruit loop.

As an actor there's a lot of scrutiny and, even when you've had success, it becomes about sustaining that success. A friend of mine described it as a peakless mountain. Even for Robert De Niro there's Al Pacino and for Pacino there's De Niro.

You never know what's right, what you feel inside versus what is portrayed.

I'm as voyeuristic and intrigued as the next person as to how celebrities live.

If you've loved something and then in some ways you become a part of it, you just don't want to be the one that screws it up!
