On a serious level, I wouldnt tell the press if I was in a relationship or not. I wouldnt ever reveal that, because it takes you down a certain road... I have no desire to be courting the press with my love life.

You find with the really great actors, the ones you really admire and look up to, very often they're very giving, generous, warm people.

There are lots of actors out there who are hugely, hugely talented and haven't got the breaks I've had.

You don't want to seem too eager, too romantic - otherwise, it just looks a bit try-hard. But I do think that a first date should be intimate. So I'd choose a nice dinner somewhere cozy, not too crowded, with good wine.

Like every actor, you get notorious for maybe one role and then get offered a lot of similar roles.

I like a good cry every now and then. It releases something. There are times in my life when I'm meant to cry, but I don't actually cry. But then I can be walking down the street and it's been a few months, and things get on top of me - that's when I find myself crying.

I try not to read the social networks too much. I find that way madness lies.
