I've always said in my career and in my life I only do things I'm interested in.

I don't feel sorry for myself, because I'm living my dream. Even when I was a little boy I used to stand in the playground and pretend I was on 'Opportunity Knocks.'

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.

I live my life openly and freely every day anyway, and do what I want to do, but I don't take any great risks.

I'm not one of those actors who likes to analyze things too much, so I trust what the writers are doing with the characters, in order to give them their journey. My job is to come in and try to make those words on the page come alive on camera.

Love is love, no matter who you fall in love with, love is love, it can be painful, it can be wonderful.

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.
