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

The only person Ill marry is myself. Believe me, my ego is that big.

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 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.

Acting can be a difficult business. When I was younger, if my mates were doing better than me, I might be a little bit envious, but as I have got older, I love to see actors cracking on and succeeding. The same goes for writers.

As an actor, you've got to maintain a bit of mystery and at least part of your private life, otherwise the game is up.

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.
