I manage to live pretty normally.

I think interviews can be fine. It's just there's this terrible fear of coming off wrongly or saying something that gets taken out of context.

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.

My mum always says work goes in waves: you have a good spell and then it dips.

I always like to keep busy, otherwise my brain starts ticking.

Occasionally people will look at me and do a double take and theyll look at me like theyre trying to think where they know me from.

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