Overall I enjoy a certain anonymity. I live a very normal, very ordinary life.

Over the years, I have been asked to play these sort of scary frenetic characters that express their emotions physically.

Growing up in a particular neighborhood, growing up in a working-class family, not having much money, all of those things fire you and can give you an edge, can give you an anger.

Interesting things come your way but as you get older, your lifestyle changes. I don't want to travel; I don't want to be in a hotel room away from my family.

'Nil By Mouth' was a bit autobiographical, but as I always pointed out at the time, that's not my dad.

Being an actor is a good way to earn a living. And to meet fabulous people. It's great to live very comfortably. I've been lucky, I've had a lot of fun with great roles, but it is true that if I were extremely rich, I would stop and I would go to play football on a beach in the Caribbean with my children.
