I know I haven't done it. I've done a couple of films, which were intended to go straight up. Thankfully they didn't. So now, I think that's what I need to do. I just need to grow as an actor.

I like to think that at the end of a show, you can just take your costume off and go to the pub.

In fact, when I met Kit Harington first, he was pretty much feeling how I'm feeling today - at a photo shoot and you've had no sleep. He was just a really nice, English, down-to-earth guy. No pretense, nothing.

I always wanted to be a teacher. A bit of me still wants to be a teacher.

If you try to bring 'teen drama,' you end up doing nothing but pouting.

For me, comfort is paramount.

American actors are all muscular, tanned, white teeth and they have this indestructible confidence. We British are all... Dare I say it? Pessimistic.
