I was neurotic and weird from an early age.

My skin doesn't look as good when I'm not eating enough fruits and vegetables, so I try to eat plenty.

In true-life dramas, you have to do so much research. It's a big responsibility to make sure things are as correct as possible. In 'Robin Hood', you have more artistic license - it's all action, adventure and reaction. This gives everyone a chance to make their characters their own and to make them believable.

You can have a great script, and it can be a great show, but for whatever reason, it just doesn't take the public's interest.

It's nice to bring the changes with everything you do. As an actor, that's what you want to do, all the time.

My mum said she remembers me asking her if she'd take me to ballet lessons when I was about two and a half. She said I could barely speak, and yet was asking for ballet lessons.

I'm happy with the way I look, but I'm not Hollywood beautiful.
