I'm determined not to lose my name. It's who I am. It has neither aided my progress nor hampered it. It's just who I am.

Television is what we're all very attracted to because that's where the best writing and the best characters are.

A few people have said that I should change my name and the spelling so that people can say it, but I don't want to, I like it the way it is.

To be honest, I think that I am a bit of a singer, coming from Wales; being Welsh, we are all very proud of our singing heritage.

It's interesting - an actor's research is different to just historian's research. I'm looking for things that I can actually physically use in the movie.

Actors, to a certain extent, never grow up, you see. It's an extension of being out in the back yard with a stick, only you're being paid to do it. It's borderline madness.

Being attractive, it's not something I do consciously. It's incredibly flattering that people think I appeal to women. But that was a gift from my parents.
