Most actors are socialists, aren't they?

What I do believe is theatre is a medium with a peculiar ability to air vital issues.

I'm rather proud of having been a trainspotter.

I'm not very good at relaxing. Reading's the main thing. On the bus, on the tube, on the loo. Literally all the time. I mean, I don't think there's a moment of the day when I wouldn't be if I was left alone.

Stamps from Afghanistan are hilarious. You can tell when the revolutions are because suddenly they stop having pictures of the mullahs and the independence monument and they start having fish on them.

When people say, 'If I had my life over again I wouldn't do anything different,' well, I'd do everything differently just for the variety.

We'll be back. I promise you that.
