Anyone that knows me knows what I'm about, and I'm very much a British actor, a European actor.

I've really enjoyed my work in television, but the problem for me is the turnover of directors every week.

I rant and rave about noise pollution.

Acting, the arts in general, is a magnet for the wounded of society.

It's much more fun to be ugly.

I'd totally be attracted to a geek girl!

I want to keep audiences off balance, so they don't know who I am or how to take me. If I duck and weave, as Frank Bruno might say, I'll have a longer shelf life.

I owe my father everything.

I've always believed that as an actor anything you're asked to do is within you. You just have to try and find it.

Hunger's a great spur.

I used to be a rabid reader, but now it's scripts or nothing - network television is quite relentless, and you can't drop the ball.

In fact what I would like to see is thousands of computer scientists let loose to do whatever they want. That's what really advances the field.

We are all more than the sum of our sins.

The epiphany for me was that I wasnt a writer, and I had to do something with these texts. I put them in the streets as posters.

I'm a very lucky person. I'm an idiot, and I've shoveled through life rather nicely so far, so I don't feel like I deserve good treatment.

If you can be anything else but a writer, be it.

Lying to other people is fine and usually funny, but lying to yourself is tacky.

I try not to do anything I don't like, so I stay motivated pretty easily.
