I wasn't bullied or anything at school, but I was quite shy and didn't speak up too much in class.

Alan Rickman told me to do a play, so I did. Because when Alan Rickman tells you do something, you go and do it.

I was a short, chubby kid, pretty shy.

I mean, I must confess I don't own Harry Potter DVDs. My parents do. They have them all. And they like watching them.

I had a screen test and an audition for the role of Neville Longbottom. It wasn't a job at that point. It was just something I enjoyed doing. And it's hard to remember back then, really, that much. But I just remember loving it.

I'm very self-conscious as an actor, with performances and things, and I don't like watching my own stuff.

I get too excited about football and rugby.
