You know, an audition usually is you come in and read the scene and if you're lucky, you get to read it twice.

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.

It is always a nice feeling when you are challenged by a scene and you walk out of trailer and you go on set going I don't know. And then half an hour later you're walking back.

A lot of parents tell their children that if they want to be an actor, that's fine, but they should do something else first, so they've got something to fall back on. It doesn't work like that, as far as I'm concerned.

Don't worry about telling your actor what to do.

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

I've never worked with an acting coach, no.
