I was a theater man, so I was never in the situation of being a handsome Hollywood leading man, and then having to age.

I always loved the challenge. When something new happened, I always used to get quite excited.

I think main storylines are what always intrigued me, with those that were the relationships between the characters against whatever backdrop, whether it was in an ordinary universe or a universe in the future.

I suppose, when you start up in acting, you hope to be given challenges, and you always have dreams about the things you could do and couldn't do, but normally we get pigeon-holed a little bit, as we go on in our careers.

I don't know how I absorb things, but I do. I just absorb them. I don't over read the script, and I don't really ever spend much time learning it.

We didn't know until really quite late in the piece how Joel [Wyman] would finish it off.

I think the glue that held Fringe together was the relationships.
