I never mind talking about my dad. I'm proud of who he is, and being his son is one of the things I'm most proud of. To be constantly compared to someone so brilliant, who happens to be your dad, is cool.

I think one of the main differences between being an English actor and being an American actor is that we have things like the class system in England.I'm middle class.
