Yes, years of compromise and disappointment have added depth to my acting.

Ive gone through long periods without being with someone and got a bit lonely, but not for a while.

People talk about opportunity knocking, but the gate was always swinging in the breeze before I got to the door.

My idea of quality is my own idea of quality. What I do and what I want to do next is my business. The next thing I fall in love with might be what you think is rubbish.

Im hoping that a lifetime of compromise and disappointment will read as extra depth and layers in my work.

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

I wasnt a model schoolboy. Of course, I was forced to sit through Shakespeare and I really got into some of it, though it depended on who was reading it out.
