When I think about actors I know, I'd much rather hear about who they're shagging than what film they're doing next.

Women are frightening. If you get to 41 as a man, you're quite battle-scarred.

I don't particularly like babies. I don't mind them for about four minutes. That's my max. After that I can't quite see what everyone's fussing about.

My dad used to have to open the second bottle of wine in the loo in case Mum heard the cork coming out.

I think that's the whole point of Bridget Jones. It's all about that it's okay to fail.

Strangely enough I'm better on a stage. I love that I feel like I blossom in front of a whole bunch of people.
