Actors, movie stars, rock stars, I can meet them with no worries - but with footballers I go weak at the knees. All of them.

The storytelling in 'Doctor Who' is quite universal.

There's something very intimate about taking someone's work, turning it over and unpicking it. In the same way people have unique handwriting people have a sewing style. You do start building a fantasy relationship with the person.

As an actor, you'll have ten parts in 2015 - eight of them will go to the other actors above you and two of them you might be close to, and you try to make them as good as you can.

I am writing from the heart and having a fresh approach to things. We [Theocracy] are obviously not trying to musically re-invent the wheel here, and you can certainly hear our influences, but we also don't sound like a copycat of any one band.

It's very rare that I play cool people. I'm not sure what that says about me.

Directing made me realise what I do as an actor that's extraneous, it focuses your mind on story, story, story.
