I love home. I'd rather be at home than anywhere else.

There's a difference between the parts that I play and who I am and who people think I am. There's quite a big discrepancy sometimes between those things.

I love that pre-mod jazz look of the late Fifties, the Steve McQueen style that influenced the British modernists.

I value being able to go into a record shop and people leaving me alone.

There is nothing far-fetched about disappointment as a subject for comedy. It's something we are all too familiar with.

Acting is the only thing I'm even vaguely good at and acting is something that I think I do know about.

I think if you were known for playing something other than being a nice guy then people might be a little less likely to take liberties with you. If you are Ray Winstone, and people have seen you kick a few people to death, then they are a little less likely to approach you or whatever.
