I've certainly said I don't want to do any more bad guys, then I sit and don't do anything for a while and then think, "Okay, one more."

Id like an omelet named after me.

It's good to remind yourself that you're lucky to be working at all. It's very easy to get into the mindset of ingratitude and I battle with it all the time.

The reason I live in America is because I mean literally every six or seven years I've done something in England. The last lead I had in an English film I did was 1998. So that's why I live here. It's because I get more work. I'll travel back for radio, you know what I mean. I've just got to consider myself to be living in the middle of the ocean, and that way I have a really nice career, if I'm prepared to do television, radio, theater, and film.

I do as much comedy as I possibly can but I'm basically limited by the imagination of the secretaries who make the decisions.

When I left drama school, my fear was that I'd get pigeon holed into comic acting and I did so much to counter it that I got stuck in the opposite.

I think the only thing I've got going for me as an actor specifically is the fact that I can change.
