The work my mum does, a lot of it is re-housing homeless people, that's a real job. I play make-believe and dressing up for a living!

I had a lot of time before I actually got my break so to speak. I was building websites for other actors. I worked in a grocery store back in the little village where I grew up but I found it mind-numbingly boring.

Each year we go to the Cannes film festival and I tend to have all my friends pile in the back of my car and we'll drive from London. The poor production company think they're only putting me up and suddenly they've got eight people sleeping on my hotel room floor.

If you go into acting to make money then you're an idiot. It's my hobby and the fact that I'm doing my hobby for a job is mental.

I think most actors will tell you the same thing; when you're not working you put 100 percent into every audition.

All actors have to change their name.

I feel arrogant trying to give people advice.
