A Lot Of My Work Is With

I've Always Taken My Love Of Children From My Father. He Was A Children Magnet. Suddenly, Having My First Child Hit Home What My Dad Went Through.

My First Love Is Art, And I See A Lot Of Things In An Artistic Way.

A Lot Of The Characters I Play Have Problems, They Are Marginalised, They Have Serious Psychological Problems, Problems With Relationships, With Childhood. These Are Big Subjects, Big Subjects. You Can't Balk At Work Like That. As An Actor, That's As Good As It Gets.

I Was 16 When I Was In A Band, For About 10 Minutes. I Went Off And Did Acting After That. So It Was A Wee Moment For Me When I Sang.

I Have A Reputation For Being An Improvisational Actor, Which Is True, But I Also Know What I'm Doing So That If The Improvisational Strand Doesn't Work I Can Go Back To What I Know's Already There.
