When I go on the plane to fly home, I'm literally capable of forgetting what I do for a job. That also comes about because I choose to take massive breaks between projects, and because I choose to do this ridiculous thing of keeping home, home.

I get inhabited by a character and then you mourn it. There's a period of mourning for me, definitely.

I would never say never to returning to comedy.

I don't consciously seek out Australian projects. I put them on the same table as all the other scripts and I wouldn't ever do a film just because it's been shot at home.

My chosen exercise is cycling. I just love it.

I knew a bit but we don't study a lot of British history at school in Australia. We have our own 50-year period to concentrate on.

I just think that's the job of an actor. I guess that's the variation that you're talking about. It's probably a byproduct of just constantly looking for something different, because that's what I feel like I'm supposed to do.
