Nowadays we have so many things that take our attention - phones, Internet - and perhaps we need to disconnect from those and focus on the immediate world around us and the people that are actually present.

It's always a bit overwhelming when you arrive on set and everyone's new, but you soon become a big family. I find the hardest thing about acting is that you have to say goodbye to everyone at the end of a shoot.

After Skins I became mildly famous, which was a bit of a disaster.

I don't really have disappointments, because I build myself up for rejection.

That's how I believed relationships worked: You go into town, pick up the girl you want, then ride off into the mountains and the townsfolk can't get them back.

I'm not one of those people who's saying "I'm going to set up a production company", because I like acting and not having to be a business man and do that side of things.

I won't eat veal, and my mum won't eat lamb, because she thinks it's a bit harsh to eat cute things.
