You Never Know How Films Are Going

I Wouldn't Want To Leave It So Long Before Doing A Play Again, I Get Very Stolid And Sluggish If I Do Too Much Telly.

The Security Comes, As An Actor, In Knowing That You're Not In Control. If You Try To Control Your Career, Or How People Perceive You, You'll Make Yourself Unhappy, Because Life Doesn't Work Like That. So Much Is Luck. It's Much Better To Let Yourself Off, To Think, 'there's Nothing I Can Do.'

I Just Loved The Whole Idea Of Being An Actor.

It Must Be Odd, Being Recognisable. I Would Hate To Lose That Anonymity. It Happened For A While With 'spooks.' No One Notices Me Now.

I Think It Sits Quite Happily With Me, The Condition Of Being An Actor. I See Some People Getting Quite Eaten Up With It, With The Insecurities. There Are Times When I Long For Continuity And Stability, But I Also Love The Idea Of Not Knowing What I'll Be Doing Next - Or Even If I'm Going To Work.
