I'm really passionate about pantomime because it is often the first introduction for a child to theatre, and if that child has a great experience at a pantomime they will continue to come year after year.

There's a lot of me in Captain Jack and there's a lot of Captain Jack in me. And there is no pun intended.

As an actor, I only play what is in the moment, rather than in the future, but sometimes the past is more important than what is coming up in the future.

I would love to lecture to women on men. I'd tell them everything about men: gay, straight, bi, how we're all the same, how we're all bastards.

We get the scripts before the table read, but I don't look at them until we go into the table read. I don't want to know, when I'm playing a moment in the current episode, what's going to happen because it might change how I'm playing that.

I've always thought people would find a lot more pleasure in their routines if they burst into song at significant moments.

Honestly, the world can be a dark enough place. Light it up.
