Actors don't like to read what they're supposed to do.

Producing good stuff can be quite tough, and it involves a lot of frustration, but I always like things to be jolly and happy, and I forget thats actually not the point at the end of the day.

I find politicians so desperately boring. I don't trust them and don't believe in them.

I've always like sort of, as an actor, I'm drawn to exploring how we are as human beings in given situations and how we act and how we react and what makes us tick.

From there I did a one year theatre acting course in Fife, and then three years of drama school in London.

...as an actor there`s nothing better than a great moody moment to play with nothing to say. It`s so much easier to do because you can really get inside your head.

I would tend to be drawn to independent cinema as a viewer, probably more than the big blockbuster.
