It's quite hard to faze me. I'm fairly un-shockable.

The performances I enjoy are the ones that are hard to read or ambiguous or left-of-centre because it makes you look closer and that's what humans are like - quite mysterious creatures, hard to pinpoint.

I find it quite hard to sum up my relationship in a sound bite. I feel that it trivializes it for other people's pleasure. It's an adventure.

A lot of period dramas can appear quite arch to most people, stuffy.

I almost broke my coccyx on 'The Wolf Man', and I banged my head once. I had to fall really hard.

I think for me the job always has to be the right thing at the right time.
