Yeah I loved, as a kid growing up, I loved science-fiction.

Poverty is a very complicated issue, but feeding a child isn't.

I remember being on a black-and-white set all day and then going out into daylight and being amazed by the colour.

You have to find your tone and work within that to make it as real so the audience can really engage in the story you're telling.

When I was really young, my mom enrolled me in dance classes. "Mom, I'm too young to dance," I told her. She kind of forced me, but I ended up loving it, and after the first lesson I came back and said, "Come on, Mom, I'll show you the box step." That introduced me not just to dancing but also to working with someone without having a goal.

As a kid, you want to be liked for who you are. You don't want to be liked for who your parents are. You don't want to get a job because of who your parents are. You want to do it on your own, with your own gifts and your own value. So, I decided to spare my kids that and not be as pro-active as my dad was.

The problem with the designated driver programme, it's not a desirable job. But if you ever get sucked into doing it, have fun with it. At then end of the night drop them off at the wrong house.
