I'd say I'm the opposite of someone that has the urge to stand in front of strangers and make them laugh, but the idea of getting up and telling a story and people finding it amusing always appealed to me.

I fell in love with many women at school who had no idea I existed. I'm a bit of a romantic.

I'm spending all my time and energy on the project at hand.

If I read something and I love it, I'll do it and I don't even ask what the budget is.

I would never say never to returning to comedy.

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

It's usually very, very hard for me to pick up a script that was written and try and see myself as a part of that, especially when you're used to performing all your own material. It's OK with drama, I like being handed great material but I think with comedy it's far more personal and probably a lot harder for me to find a fit.
