I feel arrogant trying to give people advice.

I went to an all-boys school and hated feeling like one of the crowd.

I've always been into dark colours.

I'd love to get fat on camera. Wouldn't that be great? I'll tell you what's almost as hard though, getting bulked up, getting that big. Here we are in LA and you see guys walking down the street and everyone looks like Arnold Schwarzenegger. That's really quite grim, if you haven't done it before.

The only mistake guys can make is to try too hard with their appearance. There's something very unmanly about it.

My first time acting for camera really was for Steven Spielberg in War Horse. I was trained in theater and I was actually working in theater at the time. I had a small role with the Royal Shakespeare Company, which is a huge prestigious theater company back in England. I honestly thought that was as good as it got.

I actually collect old First and Second World War memorabilia.
