I won`t buy into the Hollywood thing...I want to be in good movies.

I worked as a waiter when I was 15 and got a chance to appreciate good, simple food. There's nothing better than a boiled egg with toast.

I fight cynicism. It`s too easy. It`s really boring. It`s much harder to be positive and see the wonder of everything. Cynicism is a bunch of people who aren`t as talented as other people, knocking them because they make them feel even more untalented.

I love exploring in a rehearsal room with other actors, scenes and you know, stuff you are scared of.

I think you know, to not open your mind to television is silly because there's so much good work happening on television.

As a child I was taken to the pantomime or the theatre and I would always, always fall in love with somebody on the stage. And want to have sex with them.

I've played in pipe bands in Scotland, and I've always played guitars and drums and stuff.
