I've got to work with people who have had really fantastic careers and who are still lovely people to be around. So, I suppose that's kind of a big inspiration for me - to work for as long as possible but to continue to enjoy it. I want to be a part of the process, rather than just wanting the rewards.

I went to football training when I was five because I think my father thought he had two boys.

I'm a quiet person's nightmare - the only time I shut up is when I'm reading, because I'm a book geek.

I avoid banks and I've never been in any sort of corporate environment at all.

I try to be like a sponge when I'm around other actors, picking things up about the way they work and how they do things.

I think actor is one of those jobs where you don't stop learning, even if you have a career longer than my little five years! You're meeting new people all the time, so you might as well just be a sponge and take everybody's input and style as a bit of a lesson.
