world village littles
I love those connections that make this big old world feel like a little village.
two australia russia
I took part in two 'Leverage' conventions. Fans fly in from as far as Russia and Australia. It's expensive to attend.
fun acting elements
It's always fun messing around with costumes and stuff. You know there is an element of acting that you've got to dress-up; that's part of it.
television coupling only-time
The only time I get recognised is when I go somewhere that is showing 'Coupling' on local television.
depth cost definitions
When you shoot on high-definition, everything is very sharp and clear, sometimes at the cost of losing dimension and depth of field.
believe character kids
Fans believe they have a relationship with you, either through your TV character or, more reasonably, through the tweets you may have exchanged. In a way, you have gotten to know them. You learn about people's kids, families, pets.
language
Any friendship or relationship is about a language.
attention crowds
I don't like crowds or attention.
quirky scripts normal
I'm not really that keen on mainstream; I'm not interested in doing the normal films. I do tend to go for the quirky, different scripts.
appearing carried holidays job offered richard school
I carried on acting during school holidays and was all set to go to drama school when I was offered my first professional job appearing in 'King David' with Richard Gere.
carpet dressing putting supporting
I don't like dressing up, and I don't like putting on make-up or doing the red carpet. The only red carpet events I go to are if I'm supporting a friend.
