I prefer to be flippant about acting, just in case I'm rubbish.

For me, faith is more about aspiration than complacency - the smug satisfaction that other people find distasteful.

You're always a bit blind. If you look at stuff a few years later, you get a more objective look at it.

I like to think of myself as versatile, and I certainly have the most varied career, so I'm very, very lucky in that.

In the periods of my life when I've had least contact with the Church, I've always assumed a belief in God is a solid thing, but clearly it's a relationship; it has good days and bad days.
