Rafferty [Law] plays three or four instruments. He is very gifted. Whereas I pick instruments up and kind of stare at them and go, "I can't ever possibly play this." And I don't!

The greatest gift an actor can have is not revealing who he is but through the parts he plays. Unfortunately, we live in a world where everyone wants to know everything all the time and I think it takes away part of the fun of acting that we have to go through that all the time.

I suppose that some days I wake up I have to wake up and be responsible, reliable and down to earth, and some days I don't.

You cant spend your life apologizing.

I'm a massive comic book fan. I was buying weekly installments of "The Watchmen", and "From Hell", and "Parallax" and "Johnny Nemo". I was a huge comic book fan as a kid and I still am. Me and my youngest son are both comic book nerds together; make models and stuff.

London is my home... I know what's right and wrong here, and it's nice to have somewhere familiar to go back to.

There is no defence for my actions which I sincerely regret. [on an affair with nanny Daisy Wright]
