I was a closet straight. I think I wanted to be gay because I thought it was arty and interesting. And also, I was phenomenally shy with girls.

I'm crap at interviews. I'm just not very good at sentences.

I was a dozy boy; I'd like to have been like James Dean, but I was more Arthur Askey - pathetically rebellious in a cheeky, chappy sort of way.

I drifted into acting, and I've drifted into my career, and I've never been guided by anything particularly concrete.

Not being anxious requires a level of humility, doesn't it? It does, I think. It's not all about you.

Celebritys a pain in the backside - youre always on display.
