And there are lots of moments when I think, ‘What am I doing as an actor? I can’t act!’

I’m quite flirtatious with anyone. Some people, because I’m playing a gay character, get quite nervous. And I have to reassure them. I’m like, ‘I’m not gay. I’m not coming on to you. Yet.’

Most actors will tell you that villains are the most interesting to play.

My girlfriend is a great support, and I've got a big circle of mates who keep my feet on the ground.

Sometimes people can be guilty of not working at relationships and if it's not working, oof, that's it.

I'm a working class lad.

There's definitely a wave of Brits doing great work on American television, and I wouldn't mind being one of them!
