I'm an actor - I want to be known for that.

I'm an actor - I want to be known for that.

I appreciate some people enjoy reality TV and enjoy being a part of it - and I do watch it - but it isn't for me.

I hardly ever go to showbiz parties, it's not my style. That doesn't mean to say I don't have a good time. I love hanging out with mates.

I think that if youve got 5 million people that enjoy drama and invest in characters, you must take the time to not worry about your job and getting sacked and just go for it and hit it again.

Id be lying if I said Hollywood wasnt still an ambition; its everyones, isnt it? Youre getting paid very well, youre working with great actors and great directors - who wouldnt want to be a part of that? But its not going to break my heart if it doesnt happen. This business is about doing good work rather than how famous it makes you.

I can lip read, so I know what other people are saying about me - especially when I clock them in my rear view mirror.
