I like that about London. It comes together when it needs to, and it has magic.

It's part of the magic of 'Game of Thrones,' all the secrets.

I just like doing my job.

I just like playing people.

Even though I have Twitter, I only use it to say, 'Oh, this is coming out.' I would never voice anything about me, really.

We are a typical working class northern family, big into our football... no one in the family was into acting. But I remember seeing a panto when I was about six and thinking, 'Yeah... I wouldn't mind doing that.'
