I Never Mind Doing Press; It's Never

I Used To Joke That One Of The Reasons There Was A Lack Of Classical Work On My Cv Was Because I Couldn't Operate In Those Kinds Of Trousers. Which Is A Joke, But It's Actually Also True - If I Want To Appear In Public I Want To Look My Best. If I'm Onstage I Like To Do Contemporary Work, Largely Because Of The Trousers, Because Of The Clothes. I Like A Decent, What We Used To Call A Lounge Suit. Then I Can Start To Motor.

I Like Being In Kids' Movies, And I Like Being In Family Movies.

I'm A Jacket Man. And If I'm Without One, I Am Kind Of Seriously Disabled. I Don't Know How To Operate In Shirt Sleeves.

I'm Not An Actor Who Consciously Accesses Bits Of My Life, In Order To Play Parts. Obviously, You Don't Need To Have Been A Father To Play One, Otherwise Everyone Who's Been A Father Would Be Able To Act.

If You Are Supposed To Be Villainous And Have Some Sort Of Agenda, I Like The Idea Of Delivering That Kind Of Character In A Perfectly Well-mannered Way.
